Plastics are being used all over the world but its disposal has threatened the environment. Thus this work outlines the synthesis of a biodegradable plastic that can meet the demand and can be disposed to the environment, Synthesis of biodegradable plastics was done using starch compiled with glutaraldehyde, propylene glycol and poly(vinyl) alcohol (PVA) which also called thermoplastic starch. Thermoplastic starch (TPS) is produce to replace the plastic productions that give many side effect to the environment and living thing. The tensile strength, FTIR analysis, moisture content, biodegradability and capacity of water absorption of the films were carried out to identify the film properties. The effect of glutaraldehyde modified starch plasticized with different amount of propylene glycol (PG) and the addition of PVA were analyzed by all the method and test.
