Development and Characterization of Pectin Films with <i>Salicornia ramosissima</i>: Biodegradation in Soil and Seawater
Pectin films were developed by incorporating a halophyte plant <i>Salicornia ramosissima</i> (dry powder from stem parts) to modify the film’s properties. The films’ physicomechanical properties, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and microstructure, as well as their biodegr...
