Deskripsi

Biodegradable film-based packaging is a current concern to replace packaging that depends on petroleum. This is because petroleum-based packaging is very unfriendly to the environment. The bioresource-based biodegradable film has the disadvantage that its mechanical properties are still low, that it requires two or three bioresource materials to be used as polymer hybrids. As a film hybrid polymer that has superior properties such as flexibility, strength, heat resistance, and environmental resistance, it can be applied to various packaging materials and can be developed for various purposes. In this review, the authors review biomass sources as a matrix, as a filler in hybrid polymer-based packaging, the properties of the biodegradable file, and the development for the future. In addition to the raw materials as matrices and fillers, the synthesis method is also described. The properties of biodegradable hybrid polymer film include physicochemical, mechanical, and thermal. This review also summarizes the emerging aspects of bioresources for the development of sustainable and biodegradable hybrid polymer film friendly to the environment.
