biodegradable plastics from pineapple flour

This pineapple flour contains high amounts of amylose. Once molded into plastic, it offers more durable properties than flour with low amylose and absorbing less water. Its production cost is lower because it is processed from agricultural waste. It is a substitute material for plastic, decomposing in the soil within 45 days, more durable than tapioca starch-based materials. This pineapple flour-based plastic can be used to produce food containers to replace foam or plastic - a good alternative for health and the environment.
