••
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors concisely review raw natural fiber/polymer matrix composites with particular focus on their mechanical properties, including specific specific strength, low density, high toughness, good thermal properties, and biodegradability.
604 citations
••
TL;DR: In this paper, the complex interaction between the food packaging materials and food was studied and it was discovered that biodegradable plastics made of such materials can be disposed of together with organic waste.
220 citations
••
TL;DR: Sodium alginate films with aloe vera extract were prepared by the casting/solvent evaporation technique and the resulting films were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry, Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and mechanical and water absorption tests as mentioned in this paper.
147 citations
••
TL;DR: In this paper, the characteristics of fiber extracted from the bark of the Acacia leucophloea (AL) plant and its physico-chemical properties were investigated, and thermal studies using TG and DTG analysis revealed that they degraded at a temperature of 220°C with kinetic activation energy of 73.1kJ/mol.
138 citations
••
TL;DR: In this paper, the equilibrium reaction of chitosan in the presence of a strong acid HCI was described, and the degree of protonation was determined as a function of the initial concentration of acid in which chitosa is dispersed.
