Green Composites

Part of the book series: Materials Horizons: From Nature to Nanomaterials ((MHFNN))

Abstract

Green hydrogels are incredibly useful in order to increase the yielding of corps in agricultural field, to cure the wounds in medical field and act as an eco-friendly. In this chapter, therefore, presented about the overview of green hydrogels right from fundamentals of hydrogels to applications of hydrogels in relation to environment, tissue engineering, cardiac, and dentistry, and also covered the types of hydrogels and mechanical properties of hydrogels in relation to agriculture purposes. Author found that the there is so much in hydrogels to do research and concluded with that sky is the limit.
