Abstract
The conventional plastic bears unavoidable responsibility for the massive scale generation of garbage. The bulk of the market is mostly made up of fossil-based plastics and the worldwide environmental pollution generated by them is growing increasingly problematic. Agro-waste product is probably a good way to make bioplastic. In fact, biodegradable plastic is indeed a good alternative to replace the petroleum-based plastics. Besides, making good use of agriculture waste can assist in diminishing waste accumulation. Cassava peel is a type of waste from cultivating activities that has the potential in making bio-based plastics. This research will focus on the preparation and characterization of bioplastic from cassava peel. Several related characterization methods such as XRD, SEM, FTIR, TGA will be discussed. The main purpose of this review is to fabricate and produce bioplastic samples from cassava peel with the addition of different ratios of sorbitol and chitosan.
