Potential of durian seed (Durio zibenthinus Murr.) flour as the source of eco-friendly plastics materials: a mini-review

Currently, plastics from non-renewable sources are being used less due to environmental concerns and switching to eco-friendly plastics. Eco-friendly plastics are usually produced from renewable materials, such as durian seed flour (DSF). DSF is a product made from durian seeds, and currently, it is only limited to a substitute for other ingredients in food products systems. However, DSF contains specific constituents that can be used to create eco-friendly plastics, rarely discussed. Thus, this mini-review briefly discusses the chemical composition and potential of DSF as a source of eco-friendly plastic materials
