Bioplastic Made With Jicama Starch

The document discusses bioplastics made from jicama starch as an alternative to traditional plastics. It notes that bioplastics are made from renewable resources and do not pollute the environment like traditional plastics. The background section provides more details on how bioplastics decompose naturally and do not contain harmful chemicals. It also states that while bioplastics are slightly weaker than traditional plastics, they can help reduce waste and pollution. The document proposes making bioplastic from jicama starch and spoiled eggs and allocates a $2,000 budget for the project.

BIOPLASTIC MADE WITH JICAMA STARCH

INTRODUCTION

Plastics are synthetic materials whose components are mostly based on carbon. Bio
plastics are now being considered as substitutes to commercialized plastics. Bio
plastics are made from recyclable materials that can help lessen the pollution we are
facing as a crisis right now. Bio plastics can be made from recyclable materials that can
easily be found at home with the right tools.

Commercialized plastics have been a nuisance to the environment especially in


various bodies of water, killing many marine living beings for its high toxicity content. Bio
plastics can help solve this problem for bio plastics are toxic-free. Bio plastics can help
stop pollution especially in bodies of water for it is made of natural components and is
very safe to all kind. Having lots of bio plastics can help reduce this pollution.

Jicama starch is one of the best components to make biodegradable plastics. They
are very natural, does not contain harmful chemicals and is very effective to lessen the
pollution given by commercialized plastics for they contain rich and non harmful
minerals. Unlike commercialized plastics, bio plastics cannot harm the environment for
their natural components.

BACKGROUND

Biodegradable plastics can help our environment in many ways. For they have
natural and efficient ingredients, such as spoiled eggs and jicama starch. This can help
not only our environment, but also all the living things in our surroundings. Bio plastics
can prevent pollution for they are natural and does not have any harmful components.

In terms of quality, bio plastics are more qualitative than commercialized plastics
as bio plastics does not harm anything or anyone. It also decomposes which is good for
our landfill. It is conducted other researchers that it is slightly weak in terms of tensile
strength, than commercialized plastics.

It is also proved that bio plastics decompose in a natural way. Biodegration of


plastics will help prevent pollution and will be less-likely to harm humans. It can also
alleviate wastes that commercialized plastics do. This can reduce the amount of waste
produced and increased material recycling.

In terms of odor, bio plastics made of spoiled eggs have an unpleasant odor. The
texture of the plastic of all three variables are smooth and does not have any difference
among them.
Biodegradable plastics can contribute to the waste problem to our society as bio
plastics can be a great help to our environment for they are natural and decomposes
which helps are landfill. Bio plastics are mostly starch-based, which is good for our
environment as they are natural as well.

PROJECT BUDGET

With regard to the project budget, our team will only spend 2,000 php or less on
payments to help this project grow.
