Enhancement in the physico-mechanical functions of seaweed biopolymer film via embedding fillers for plasticulture application—a comparison with conventional biodegradable mulch film

This study aimed to compare the performance of fabricated microbially induced precipitated calcium carbonate– (MB–CaCO3) based red seaweed (Kappaphycus alvarezii) bio-polymer film and commercial calcium carbonate– (C–CaCO3) based red seaweed bio-film with the conventional biodegradable mulch film.
