Examining the Potentials of Fish Bone Bio-plastic in Sustaining Environmental and Biodegradable Effects

The study aims to examine the potentials of fish bone bio-plastic in sustaining environmental and biodegradable effects. The descriptive quantitative research was utilized to answer the objectives of the study. Whereas, the respondents are the 15 experts in the field of science and bio-plastic production and they were chosen using purposive sampling method. Based on the finding found that the physical properties of bio-plastics made from milkfish fishbone are good in terms of texture, flexibility, durability, printability and transparency. Furthermore, the bio-plastic found a potentials in absorption of range amount of water, soluble in hot water, high tensile strength and thermal stability. Thus, this concludes that bio-degradable plastics made from milkfish fish bone have a potentials in sustaining environmental and biodegradable effects. Therefore, it is recommended to continuously develop biodegradable materials to help community and environment to sustain and healthy and green environment.
