Development of Biodegradable Rigid Foams from Pineapple Field Waste

open access: yesPolymers, 2023
Pineapple materials sourced from agricultural waste have been employed to process novel bio-degradable rigid composite foams. The matrix for the foam consisted of starch extracted from pineapple stem, known for its high amylose content, while the filler comprised non-fibrous cellulosic materials sourced from pineapple leaf.

Bioconversion and characterization of watermelon rind waste‐based microcrystalline cellulose: A green alternative to synthetic reinforcements

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) was extracted from watermelon rind using acid hydrolysis. MCC can be efficiently used as reinforcement in biofilms and biocomposites. Abstract The increasing accumulation of agricultural waste from watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) represents a substantial environmental concern, particularly in view of the extensive ...
