| Summary: | Indonesia is now currently moving and developing on the industrial sector. One of the industries
that keep increasing from time to time is the textile industry. Along with the development of textiles
in Indonesia, there are negative impacts from the development of the industry. using nonrecyclable materials, overproduction, use of hazardous chemicals and many more. The importance
of the textile industry in the development of the Indonesian economic sector requires a solution to
this problem. Awareness of this issue is driving the development of alternative materials in biobased textiles. Biomaterials are biopolymers made from biodegradable organic materials or
recycled products. Utilization and processing of biomaterials in Indonesia with proper execution,
utilizing excess algae because of the ‘blooming’ process. Indonesia as a maritime country has
enormous potential as a provider of biomaterials. Carrageenan is a type of red algae that grows
in Indonesia, which can then be used as a component of biomaterials, apart from carrageenan and
gelatin, glycerin or plasticizers and structural reinforcing materials are needed to produce usable
biomaterials. The production stage includes mixing, cooking, printing and drying. After drying,
the material is processed into interior craft products using the Remple sewing technique. Materials
can be fully developed with various techniques and can be applied to fashion and interior textiles
as an alternative choice answer. Fully biodegradable When no longer in use, When disposed, it
can be destroyed in the soil without distrubing the soil fertility and dissolve in water so that it can
be one of the marine food chain once more |
