Abstract | ||||
For many plastics have been an important part of our lives in terms of their use for many household and other purposes. However, since traditional plastic materials are derived from organic compounds that are responsible for harmful emissions during their manufacture, these plastic bags have been subjected to severe criticism in recent years in terms of their unhealthy impact on the environment. Therefore, the goal of this study was to produce biodegradable plastic without leaving any problems environmental. Therefore, biodegradable plastic bags were created from gelatin and glycerin to reduce environmental problems, so they became known as environmentally friendly. The effect of some influences on biodegradable plastic was studied to identify some of its various properties, such as FTIR spectroscopy, biodegradation, solubility testing in various solvents, and its behavior toward water absorption. The synthetic plastic was observed to be waterproof and chemically inert. | ||||
