Abstract

Nanocomposites have been used in a wide range of applications from industrial to specific human needs. It has thus caught the attention of researchers and scientists. It involves the combination of two different materials to make a new product that exhibits the properties of both materials in the new product. The bionanocomposite is the result of combining different natural materials that exhibit their properties and are from natural or green resources. This bionanocomposite is produced in nanoscale that is less than 100nm in dimension. The processing of bionanocomposites into final products is different, which depends on the sources of the materials. It involves several steps that need to be taken before using in humans. This includes the synthesis and isolation of the desired product. Bionanocomposites have been used in tissue engineering and have been used to replace, support, or regenerate the cells, organs, or parts of human entity such that it can function as normal.
