Article Synopsis
- This article discusses agar biopolymer films as a biodegradable packaging solution to combat plastic pollution.
- The study examines the mechanical properties of agar-glycerin films, showing that variations in their composition can yield strong and flexible materials comparable to more complex formulas.
- Results also indicate that certain agar formulations mimic the properties of common plastics, and a neural network model was created to predict the performance of these biopolymer films based on their ingredients.
