The study on the effect of natural based additives with palm / soy oil upon degradation on polypropylene film / Amir Fakhrul Islam Abdullah

Novel natural additive for polypropylene (PP) degradation was developed using dione with incorporation of palm/soy bean oil. Most industries incorporated synthetic dyes to impart color to the films. Commercialized degradable additives such as prooxidant and photosensitizer had also been incorporated...
