Exploring the properties of hemicellulose based carboxymethyl cellulose film as a potential green packaging

The performance of hemicellulose based carboxymethyl cellulose (H-CMC) films was investigated. Hemicellulose was extracted from oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) through alkali-ethanol extraction technique. Then the obtained hemicellulose was mixed with distilled water and embedded with carboxymeth...
