Abstract

Methods for obtaining biodegradable films based on protein-carbohydrate components by varying their content and establishing optimal physical and mechanical characteristics depending on the ratio of protein components were developed. The resulting films possess integral structure, strength and ability to biodegradation under natural environmental conditions. Singularity of the obtained copolymer films consists in the fact that their destruction leads to the formation of ecologically safe products being a mixture of carbohydrates and amino acids.
