Prediction of Properties of Polymer Composite Formulations Using Ensemble Models With Feature Generation

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 25, July 5, 2026.
This study develops an interpretable machine‐learning framework to predict multiple properties of polymer composites based on composition and processing variables. By combining ensemble models with composition‐based feature generation and SHAP‐based interpretation, the approach reveals composition‐property relationships and supports efficient multi ...

Preparation and characterization of Cassava starch/Polybutylene (adipate-co-terephthalate) biodegradable composite film

Sri Lankan Journal of Physics, 2023
Extruded biodegradable films based on Poly (butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) and Cassava starch (CS) at varying weights were prepared, and their relevant properties for packaging applications are here reported. Neither the peak position nor the intensity of the film’s distinctive infrared absorption peaks was altered by the addition of CS to ...

Multilayer Cellulose Acetate–Viscose Films for Bio‐Based, Bio‐Degradable Packaging Applications

Packaging Technology and Science, Volume 39, Issue 6, Page 685-695, June 2026.
Cellulose acetate (CA) and cellulose foils stick together comprehensively after mild cellulose sodium hydroxide treatment and heated compression. For combined foils, water barrier properties correlate with CA thickness. Oxygen permeation suffers due to the sodium hydroxide pre‐treatment induced foil changes. The composite represents a biodegradable and
