Abstract
This study reports a route to obtaining a novel and cost-effective rice husk-derived lignin/thiophene chalcone green composite for application in forensic science as a fingermark developer through high energy milling. The material was properly characterized by UV-Vis, IR, fluorescence, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The product provided clear and sharp images of latent fingermarks with minimal background staining, revealing all ridge details. Thus, the composite presented good performance as a fingermark developer, becoming an interesting alternative to being applied as a technological, reproducible and renewable product.
