Seaweed and cellulose are promising natural polymers. This article reviews the basic
information and recent developments of both seaweed and cellulose biopolymer materials …

The increased global demand for plastic materials is increasing the production and
consumption of plastic materials around the world. It has resulted in severe plastic waste …

The principal aim of the present study is to develop a method for the production of cellulose
nanofibers, from the banana peel (BP) and bract (BB). It is also the aim of this study to …

In this work, starch/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) blend films with different compositions were
prepared by melt processing. The effect of the composition and relative humidity (RH) on the …

The present work deals with the development of cellulose-reinforced starch-based bioactive
thermoplastic packaging films, from complete recycling of banana peel waste. The …

Pickering emulsions were prepared by stabilizing thymus vulgaris essential oil (TEVO) with
cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), which formed composite films by loading the emulsions into …

In the present study, in order to improve the properties of nanostarch-based nanocomposite
film for food packaging, a type of nanocomposite film based on corn nanostarch (CNS) as …

The main aim of the present study is to extract and characterize cashew nut shell (CNS)
starch and walnut shell cellulose (WNC) for development of cellulose reinforced starch films …

A novel macromolecular polysaccharide VGPⅠ-a was purified from Volvariella volvacea
fruiting bodies with ultrasound-assisted extraction, ion exchange and gel chromatography …

Antimicrobial bio-nanocomposite films were prepared by incorporating nisin (0.25–0.5%
W/W) and ε-polylysine (PL, 0.2% W/W) into corn distarch phosphate/nanocrystalline …
