BIODEGRADABLE POLYMER FILM: A STUDY OF KAPPA - CARRAGEENAN AND SODIUM ALGINATE BLEND

The study of natural polymers can development of biodegradable purpose to reduce plastic material.Using kappa carrageenan and sodium alginate for designed for potential applications of food packaging materials and medical purpose.Research introduces characterization of polymeric film like, thermal, mechanism and barrier properties.Help of orange peel extract with kappa carrageenan and sodium alginate composite film to enhance the antibacterial properties and check the effectiveness against bacteria.To check it's structural, thermal, morphological, chemical and optical properties with the help of X-ray diffraction method, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Thermogravimetric analysis, Scanning electron microscopy and Ultraviolet visible spectroscopy of kappa carrageenan and sodium alginate composite polymeric film.These two polymers are biological effective for pharmaceutical and food industries.
