Abstract:Sustainable bioplastics made from Tawaro sago starch are investigated in the study. This study is motivated by the global need to lessen the environmental impact of petroleum-based polymers and discover greener alternatives. Tawaro sago starch's amylose concentration, moisture levels, and ecologically friendly qualities are examined in the study. It carefully blends sago starch, glycerol, and an acetic acid and water activator solution to create a bioplastic. The study will examine these bioplastics' chemical … Show more
