Abstract

This review explores advancements (2015–2024) in starch-based biopolymer films reinforced with cellulose and its derivatives (CMC, MCC, CNC, CNF, MFC) for sustainable applications. The study highlights improvements in mechanical strength, chemical stability, and barrier properties, and reviews applications in food packaging, biomedical devices, and electronics. Findings emphasize the ecological and industrial benefits of starch-cellulose composites, underscoring their potential as biodegradable and versatile alternatives to petroleum-based plastics.
