Abstract
Biosorption is the process by which natural materials take in substances from their surroundings. It has gotten a lot of attention lately because it could be used in many different areas. One interesting way to use it is in polymer compounds, where adding natural materials can improve their dynamic qualities and make it easier to make medical devices. This article talks about how biosorption and polymer composites work together to make something better. It also talks about the pros and cons of using natural materials in this way. Chitosan, cellulose, and lignin are examples of natural materials that have qualities that make them good choices for adding to polymer structures. Because these materials have a lot of surface area, functional groups, and biocompatibility, they are good for biosorption processes and work well with living things. Polymer mixtures can be made to be stronger, more flexible, and last longer than standard manufactured materials by using these properties to their advantage. Adding natural materials to polymer blends is also an environmentally friendly and long-lasting way to create and make materials. Synthetic chemicals often come from resources that can’t be replaced and pollute the environment. Natural materials, on the other hand, can be gotten from a wide range of sources that can be used again and again. This makes worries about sustainability and environmental impact less important. This eco-friendly way of doing things fits in with the growing movement in many fields, like science and healthcare, toward green tools and sustainable practices. The better dynamic qualities that biosorption-based polymer composites offer hold a lot of hope for making medical devices. To make sure that medical devices work safely and effectively inside the body, they need to be made of materials that can withstand bodily forces, keep their structure, and be biocompatible. By adding natural materials like alginate or chitosan that are good at biosorption to polymer frameworks, medical devices can be made to meet these strict requirements while also lowering the risk of side effects or problems. Using biosorption-based polymer composites is a potential way to improve their dynamic qualities and make it easier to make medical products. Researchers and engineers can come up with new ways to use natural materials to make things that not only work better but also care about the environment and sustainability when they are designing and making things.
