In the context of global plastic pollution, the demand for bio-based materials as plastic alternatives is increasing rapidly. Cassava starch has emerged as a potential solution - not only eco-friendly but also highly practical in applications such as packaging, bioplastics, and sustainable consumer products.
- Cassava starch is extracted from cassava roots (also known as tapioca).
- It has a fine white texture, odorless, and is easily biodegradable.
- It is a plentiful resource in Vietnam and many tropical countries.
