Algal-based extrudable formulation, bio-based and compostable material and method of manufacturing thereof

Abstract

Disclosed is an algal-based extrudable compostable formulation comprising: at least one hydrocolloid that is extracted from algae, wherein the at least one hydrocolloid is present in a range of 30% to 80% of a total weight of the algal-based extrudable compostable formulation; and at least one plasticizer, wherein the at least one plasticizer is present in a range of 20% to 70% of the total weight of the algal-based extrudable compostable formulation, wherein the algal-based extrudable compostable formulation comprises at least one biobased biodegradable polymer derived from at least one cultivated biomass, and wherein the at least one biobased biodegradable polymer is present in a range of 1% to 80% of a total weight of the algal-based extrudable compostable formulation; and wherein the algal-based extrudable compostable formulation comprises at least one biobased reactor-derived ingredient, wherein the at least one biobased reactor-derived ingredient is present in a range of 5% to 50% of a total weight of the algal-based extrudable compostable formulation, wherein the at least one biobased reactor-derived ingredient is at least a biosurfactant produced in a reactor.
