The increasing demand for plastic solutions has led to a focus on reducing petroleum-derived plastics. Biodegradable plastics made from natural resources like agricultural waste and aquatic life are being explored as a solution. The study focuses on the sea grape, Caulerpa lentillifera, which has antibacterial properties and is abundant in Malaysia. The goal is to create biodegradable plastic from Caulerpa lentillifera, which is expected to benefit society and be commercialized due to its biodegradability and potential for use in consumer goods and medical technology. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) established by the United Nations, particularly SDG 14 which focuses on the conservation and sustainable use of marine resources, are also in line with this unique idea.
