Description:Biodegradable green composites are eco-friendly materials designed for sustainable packaging applications,
combining natural fibers (like jute, flax, or rice husk) with biodegradable polymer matrices such as
polylactic acid (PLA) or thermoplastic starch (TPS). These materials address the environmental challenges
posed by conventional plastics by offering renewability, reduced pollution, and compostability. Green
composites are increasingly used in food and industrial packaging due to their lightweight, strength, and
ability to decompose into natural components under suitable conditions. With advancements in production
methods, these materials are becoming a cost-effective alternative, promoting a circular economy and
reducing plastic waste.
Biodegradable green composites are designed to replace traditional plastics by combining natural fibers
(like jute or hemp) with biodegradable polymers (such as PLA or TPS). These materials decompose into
eco-friendly components, reducing environmental pollution. They offer a sustainable solution for packaging
with performance comparable to conventional plastics, supporting a greener future , Claims:1. Develop biodegradable green composites as sustainable alternatives to conventional plastic packaging.
This point focuses on creating innovative materials that replace traditional petroleum-based plastics,
which are non-biodegradable and contribute significantly to environmental pollution. Biodegradable
green composites are designed to decompose into natural elements such as carbon dioxide, water, and
biomass under composting or natural conditions. These composites consist of renewable natural fibers
(e.g., jute, hemp, or rice husk) embedded in biodegradable polymer matrices (e.g., PLA, TPS).
2. Utilize renewable natural fibers and biodegradable polymer matrices for material formulation.
3. Ensure the composite offers high performance, including strength, durability, and lightweight properties.
4. Promote environmental sustainability by reducing plastic pollution and waste accumulation.
5. Support a circular economy through renewable and compostable material solutions.
6. Provide a cost-effective packaging option suitable for food and industrial applications
