PRODUCTION OF BIOPLASTIC FROM AVOCADO SEED STARCH REINFORCED WITH MICROCRYSTALLINE CELLULOSE FROM SUGAR PALM FIBERS

The influence of microcrystalline cellulose derived from sugar palm fibers and glycerol on the mechanical properties of bioplastics from avocado seed starch was studied. Sugar palm fibers underwent alkali treatment, bleaching, and hydrolysis with HCl to produce microcrystalline cellulose. Bioplastic...
