Abstract

Traditional plastics are deeply embedded in modern life because of their convenience and affordability. However, their extensive use has resulted in significant environmental issues. To that end, biodegradable bioplastics, fabricated from natural sources containing starch and cellulose, offer a promising solution. Therefore, this present work utilized agricultural wastes, including starch extracted from avocado seed, microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) obtained from coconut fibers, and vinegar residue as binder and plasticizer, to produce biodegradable bioplastics, by the simple one-pot mixing process. The avocado seed contained 18% starch, and the 100-mesh starch consisted of amylose (0.089%), amylopectin (74.43%), water (21.47%), ash (0.25%), protein (1.98%), and lipid (1.68%). The optimal bioplastic formula comprised 10 g of avocado seed starch, 1 g of bentonite, 3 g of vinegar residue, 4 g of coconut fiber MCC, 5 mL of glycerol, and 50 mL of water. The resulting bioplastic film exhibited a tensile strength of 27.92 MPa, an elongation at a break of 23.68%, nano-sized crystallites of 18.47 nm, a smooth surface with transparency of 91 ± 3%, high water vapor transmission rates of 157.3 to 219.6 g/m2day, and modifiable chemical functional groups. These bioplastic films also exhibited excellent biodegradability, with complete degradations after 13 days, 38 days, and 100 days, in alkaline, acidic, salt, and soil conditions, respectively. In a nutshell, by using agricultural wastes, this research successfully formulated natural biodegradable bioplastics, consequently addressing the plastic pollution crisis and contributing to sustainable waste management practices and the development of economically feasible bioplastics.

牛油果籽、椰子纤维和醋渣混合复合可生物降解生物塑料薄膜的开发:农业废弃物管理方法
传统塑料因其便利性和可负担性而深深融入现代生活。然而,它们的广泛使用导致了严重的环境问题。为此,由含有淀粉和纤维素的天然原料制成的可生物降解生物塑料提供了一个很有前途的解决方案。因此,本研究利用农业废弃物,包括从鳄梨种子中提取的淀粉,从椰子纤维中提取的微晶纤维素(MCC),以及醋渣作为粘合剂和增塑剂,通过简单的一锅混合工艺生产可生物降解的生物塑料。牛油果种子淀粉含量为18%,100目淀粉由直链淀粉(0.089%)、支链淀粉(74.43%)、水(21.47%)、灰分(0.25%)、蛋白质(1.98%)和脂质(1.68%)组成。最佳生物塑料配方包括10克鳄梨种子淀粉、1克膨润土、3克醋渣、4克椰子纤维MCC、5毫升甘油和50毫升水。该生物塑料薄膜的抗拉强度为27.92 MPa,断裂伸长率为23.68%,纳米微晶尺寸为18.47 nm,表面光滑,透明度为91±3%,水蒸气透过率为157.3 ~ 219.6 g/m2day,具有可修饰的化学官能团。这些生物塑料薄膜在碱性、酸性、盐和土壤条件下分别在13天、38天和100天后完全降解。简而言之,本研究通过利用农业废弃物,成功制备了天然的可生物降解的生物塑料,从而解决了塑料污染危机,并为可持续的废物管理实践和经济上可行的生物塑料的开发做出了贡献。
