“…A high water-holding capacity, biodegradability, and a lack of toxicity recommend alginate as a biocompatible biopolymer that is widely employed in health sector research to develop new materials for drug delivery, tissue regeneration, wound healing systems, and biomedical implants [1][2][3]. In addition to biomedical applications, sodium alginate (NaAlg) has applications in various other fields, such as food packaging [4], electrolytes in chemical devices [5], wastewater treatment [6], emulsifiers [7], anticorrosive dyes [8], stabilizers [9], and textiles [10]. Alginate-based composites can be used in powder form [11], film form [12], and liquid phase in spin coating or 3D printing items [13].…”
