Overview

Analysis reveals enhancements in mechanical and thermal characteristics of degradable plastic using calcium carbonate filler.

Key Points

  • The addition of calcium carbonate improved the tensile strength of sago starch-based degradable plastic.
  • Degradation rates varied between 16 to 24 days, depending on the calcium carbonate composition used.
  • The study used Fourier Transform Infra Red to identify chemical characteristics of the sago starch material.
  • Thermal characterization indicated a significant peak at 137.25°C related to water loss from the degradable plastic.
