Synthesis of Biodegradable Tissue Paper Comprised of Cellulose Isolated from Rice Straw Waste and Chitosan: Characterizations and The Effect of Chitosan Concentrations

Description

In this study, environmentally friendly biodegradable tissue paper (BTP) based on commercial chitosan and cellulose from rice straw waste (RSW) has been prepared. The chitosan composition was varied of 2-5% (w/v), resulting in BTP with properties which fullfil the requirements for the standardized tissue papers SNI 0103:2008. The appearance of BTP is clean, soft, and not perforated, but its color is slightly yellow and does not fade. The BTP products have high water absorption properties in the range of 68–72 mm, respectively, which is much higher than the standard value (30 mm) of tissue paper.
