Polylactic acid/zinc oxide biocomposite films for food packaging application
International Journal of Biological Macromolecules, 2016 Although PLA is much more expensive than polyolefins, such as PP and PE, there is a great interest to propose PLA based material as alternative films for food packaging being PLA derivable from natural source, compostable and biodegradable. For this purpose the research has the task to investigate and propose PLA materials with enhanced properties to ...

Chitosan/graphene oxide biocomposite film from pencil rod [PDF]
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2018 Graphene Oxide (GO) has been succesfully synthesized using Hummber method from graphite powder of pencil rod. The excellent solubility of graphene oxide (GO)in water imparts its feasibilty as new filler for reinforcement hydrophilic biopolymers. In this research, the biocomposite film was fabricated from chitosan/graphene oxide.

From Magneto-Dielectric Biocomposite Films to Microstrip Antenna Devices [PDF]
Journal of Composites Science, 2020 Magneto-dielectric composites are interesting advanced materials principally due to their potential applications in electronic fields, such as in microstrip antennas substrates. In this work, we developed superparamagnetic polymer-based films using the biopolymeric matrices chitosan (Ch), cellulose (BC) and collagen (Col).
