Das Handbook of Composites From Renewable Materials umfasst 8 Bände und trägt durch seinen interdisziplinären Ansatz dazu bei, das Zusammenspiel zwischen Synthese, Struktur, Charakterisierung, Verarbeitung, Anwendungen und Leistungsfähigkeit dieser Materialien besser zu verstehen. Behandelt werden eine Vielzahl natürlicher Polymere, Verstärkungsmaterialien, Füllstoffe und biologisch abbaubarer Materialien. Die acht Bände zusammen enthalten mindestens 5000 Seiten und stellen eine einzigartige Publikation dar.
