Improved Properties of Keratin-based Bioplastic Film Blended with Microcrystalline Cellulose: A Comparative Analysis

In the present study, bioplastic films were developed using the different ratio of keratin extracted from chicken feathers and cellulose. Firstly, bioplastic (K-60) was developed from the keratin, extracted from the chicken feathers using an alkaline agent (NaOH), and mixed with PVA/glycerol to synt...
