ENHANCING SUSTAINABILITY OF POLYMERIC FILMS Authors: Ahuja S , GANDHI D AND PATEL K
ABSTRACT
Certainly, the modification of biopolymers, such as Chitosan and K-Carrageenan through chemical
and physical methods can enhance their properties and capabilities. They both are used in food
packaging industries and pharmaceuticals. Composed of Chitosan and K-carrageenan polymeric
film, and their characterization was conducted including elemental analysis such as FTIR, TGA,
SEM, XRD. These analytical techniques provides that composition, structure, thermal properties,
understanding of their properties and potential applications. The other side natural drug Indian bael
loaded film were prepared for examine Chitosan and K-carrageenan antibacterial properties
opposed to E.coil bacteria. After that use of UV Spectroscopy for determine the concentration of
molecule that present in Indian bael drug extraction. The both polymer have Good antibacterial
properties and a their properties biodegradable that used for food and pharmaceutical industries.
