Organic Waste Bio-Based Materials for 3D Extrusion

This study explores bioplastics fabrication based on tillman 750m alginate polymer with added glycerine as a plasticizer, creating flexibility, and organic waste was used as a filler avoiding shrinkage.Exploratory, observational and experimental, Literature Review, amongst other methods, were used within a Qualitative and Quantitative Methodology by Design through practice.The research material was documented through an open-source FabLab platform and shared with a community of researchers and future designers who want to design innovative and environmentally borstlist självhäftande friendly materials to replace synthetic plastics.Fifteen different bio-based materials resulted from this experiment, applicable for varied applications.

Results show that different fillers added to sodium alginate and glycerine present ample opportunities for sustainable bio-ceramics, bio-composites and bio-plastics.
