Hemicelluloses are present in large quantities in wood and in the majority of the plant tissues. They will be a valuable renewable resource for future industrial products, including plastics, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and food additives. This book covers their isolation, analysis, chemistry, technology, and applications.
