Abstract
Many studies have employed solution casting and compression moulding as processing methods to manufacture composites. Nevertheless, the commercial feasibility of soy protein-based biocomposites is directly related with the use of the techniques employed for processing synthetic polymers, such as extrusion and injection moulding. For that reason, those processing techniques were employed to develop soy protein based-biocomposites. Moreover, a natural waste obtained from the extraction of agarwas used as a filler. This waste showed good compatibility with soy protein and contributed to the development of more sustainable materials. These biocomposites showed good barrier and optical properties for packaging applications.
