Abstract:The present study discloses the evolution of bioactivity with improved chemical stability in the composite lm of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and sweet lime peel (SLP) powder along with biodegradability and improved hardness due to the structural miscibility between constituents polymer during solution blending. The evolved structure, properties, bioactivity, and synergistic effect between PVA and SLP were established with the help of spectrochemical results, morphological results, and physio-mechanical properties … Show more
