Exfoliation and physico-chemical characterization of novel bioplasticizers from Nelumbo nucifera leaf for biofilm application

Heliyon, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 9(12), P. e22550 - e22550

Published: Nov. 20, 2023

Due to the extreme threats as environmental and health issues caused by petroleum-based leachable plasticizers, researchers among different domains are more interested in finding unique biodegradable plasticizers from natural sources. The present study used Nelumbo nucifera leaf extract novel biopolymers viable substitutes for chemical plasticizers. extraction was carried out through means its physico-chemical morphological characterization were confirm plastic nature. polymers extracted possess a low glass transition temperature (77.17 °C), good thermal stability (230 density (0.94 g/cc), surface roughness (34.154 μm), crystallinity index (25.1%) moderate crystallite size (16.36 nm). presence of an organic polymer with specific groups olefinic alkenes, epoxide, imino/azo groups, hydrophobic siloxane signify that material is condensed phenolic derivative. Furthermore, bio-film formulated using NLP poly lactic acid (PLA) matrix evaluate plasticizing effect film-forming ability. Variation properties film noted after bio-plasticizer addition, where tensile strength (20.94 ± 1.5 MPa 19.22 1.3 MPa) Young's modulus (1.462 0.43 GPa 1.025 0.52 GPa) found be decreased whereas increased percentage elongation at break (26.30 1.1% 39.64 1.6%). In (Tg) (59.17 compatibility, flexibility NLP-PLA contrast pure PLA authorizes bio-plasticizers on PLA. Since could suitable replacement harmful synthetic lightweight packaging applications bioplastics sector.

Effect of alkali‐treated Putranjiva roxburghii seed shell filler on physico‐chemical, thermal, mechanical, and barrier properties of polyvinyl alcohol‐based biofilms

Journal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 30(4), P. 1010 - 1024

Published: March 27, 2024

Abstract Biopolymers and bio‐fillers derived from natural, organic, abundant resources have garnered more responsiveness owing to their affordability degradability in the production of packaging plastics. This study explores novel use different proportions (5%, 10%, 15%, 20%) 5% alkali‐treated Putranjiva roxburghii seed shell filler (PRSSF) as a bio‐filler combination with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) for first time. FTIR analysis showed creation robust hydrogen bonds enhanced compatibility between matrix alkalized PRSSF. The XRD results revealed that PRSSF strengthens structural integrity biofilms. water absorption PVA/at biofilm samples decreased by 88.38% at higher composition (20%) due hydrophobic filler. Due effect at‐PRSSF into PVA, resulting films demonstrated degradation temperature char residue 334.8°C 13.57%, respectively, relatively better UV‐barrier properties range visible light. When compared pure PVA films, tensile strength corresponding modulus PVA/20% increased 32.94% 16.2%, respectively. Therefore, PVA/at‐PRSSF biofilms produced this are ideal materials wrapping folding applications. Highlights outperform multiple aspects PVA. Tensile PVA/20%‐PRSSF 32.94%. Elongation break loading. Water 88.38%. Fractography voids agglomerations high levels.
