Anti-UV, antibacterial, strong, and high thermal resistant polyvinyl alcohol/Uncaria gambir extract biocomposite film
Pure polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) has some weaknesses, such as low values of ultraviolet (UV)-light protection, anti-bacteria, tensile strength, and thermal resistance. We have found a new additive, i.e., Uncaria gambir (UG) extract, added to PVA to improve these properties. This study characterized PVA/...
