The video represents Taylor's Foundation in Science (FIS) students work on Integrated Science Project titled Biodegradable Plastic Made from Starch. Students came out with an idea to create a biodegradable plastic material by using starch as one of the main ingredient.

Objectives:
1. To create a biodegradable plastic material using starch, glycerin, HCL and NaOH
2. To compare the effects of glycerin in plastic
3. To compare the biodegrading rate of plastic

  • greenplasticsnet - recommends tapioca starch, I am trying that and corn starch today. BTW, greenplastics has the best tutorial. The extended video has the science. Wish me luck.

  • yeah guys you didnt say which was the best most diverse plastic

  • Is it possible to have this type of thing in production?

  • Which starch was the strongest to make plastic out of because I want to make a A4 sheet of this bioplastic.
