3D structural analysis of the biodegradability of banana pseudostem nanocellulose bioplastics
Abstract X-Ray micro-computed tomography (XCT) is used to reveal the micro-structural changes of banana pseudostem nanocellulose bioplastic due to a biodegradation process initiated in a formulated composting media that allowed the growth of aerobic microflora.The bioplastic itself was made of nanocellulose, which was isolated from banana pseudoste
