The growing concern over environmental pollution caused by plastic packaging has led to an increasing interest in developing sustainable alternatives. One promising approach is the use of biopolymers derived from renewable resources for the production of biodegradable films. Lignocellulosic biomass, such as agricultural residues and wood, along with marine resources like seaweed, are abundant and sustainable feedstocks for producing biopolymers. These materials are rich in cellulose, hemicellulose, and phenolic compounds, which can be processed into films that offer both biodegradability and functional properties.
