Abstract:
Biodegradable pots for seedling growth were developed from biocomposites based on different byproducts and solid wastes such as gelatin, corn- and wheat-waste flour, sunflower seed husks and rice husks, yerba mate waste and used paper. Water absorption, solubility, tensile and biodegradation tests were carried out to determine physical and mechanical properties of studied biocomposites. Moreover, a direct test with plants was performed during summer months to evaluate the growth of pepper seedlings (C. baccatum) within the biocontainers.
