Lignin macromolecule's implication in slowing the biodegradability of urea-crosslinked starch films applied as slow-release fertilizer

High biodegradability of starch is a major limitation for its commercial usage in developing urea-crosslinked starch (UcS) film as slow-release fertilizer. For solving this problem, UcS films were reinforced with 5–20 kraft lignin. Implication of lignin as a macromolecule was tested for slowing the...
