Abstract

Today Polymers and Composites natural-derived are preferred worldwide from consumers and scientists to make skin- and eco-friendly products in substitution to petrol-derived ones. By this paper we are proposing innovative and smart tissues as novel carriers for cosmeceuticals, nutraceuticals and medical devices. Fibers of these tissues, made by natural polymeric composites, have been bound to nanoparticlecomplexes of chitin nanofibers and nanolignin encapsulating different active ingredients, selected for characterizing the final designed cosmeceuticals, nutraceuticals and medical devices. Effectiveness and safeness of the realized smart tissues have been also investigated.
