The Effect of Red Palm Oil Concentration towards Characteristics and Biodegradability of PLA-Starch Film

Polylactic acid (PLA) is a biodegradable polymer that had been used as a substitute for conventional petroleum based plastics. Plasticizers were added into the solution of PLA and starch (PLA/S) to increase the flexibility and degradability of the produced film. PLA/S films need plasticizers that ab...
