12.1 INTRODUCTION

The demand of environment friendly materials is growing and will continue to grow by growing public concern about environmental pollution, which has led to development and design of biodegradable composite materials. Green chemistry concepts may be utilized for environment friendly materials and to minimize the toxic effects of organic compounds, which pose potential risks to human health. The serious efforts are needed for the development of green composites for minimization of environmental impact of polymer composite production.
