Sinopsis

Biodegradable films for food packaging are eco-friendly alternatives to petroleum-based plastics that break down safely into water, carbon dioxide, and biomass. Starch and cellulose present in potato provide cheap, renewable matrices used for bakery and produce bags and moringa functionalization provide further strength and antimicrobial protection.Advantages are non-toxic, compostable, and capable of active food protection via antimicrobial or antioxidant infusions and decompose within months instead of long time landfilling or oceans. Lower carbon footprints and release fewer greenhouse gases than plastics.Limitations are higher production costs, sensitivity to moisture, and variable mechanical strength compared to conventional plastics.Practical applications include smart food packaging, agriculture, and better brand image.
