The graphical abstract summarizes the development and characterization of sodium alginate biodegradable films crosslinked with barium chloride (BaCl2) at concentrations of 1%, 2%, and 5% (w/v). Sodium alginate was dissolved in water, cast into films, and subsequently immersed in BaCl2 solutions to promote ionic crosslinking.
