Abstract:The development of biobased-plastic through natural filler addition into polymers has been the best method to resolve numerous environmental problems caused by overconsumption and the increasing waste disposal of non-degradable plastic films. This article produced biodegradable polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) films by adding Mimusops elengi seed shell powder (MESSP) as a filler. The membrane casting method was used to develop the films instead of using the commercially studied solution casting method to avoid inconsi… Show more
