The use of conventional plastics in human life is very diverse, one of which is as a seedling container (polybags) for agriculture and forestry crop. Although the use of polybags is felt to make it easier for humans in the nursery but causes severe hazards to the environment. This research will synthesize biodegradable plastic from oil palm waste, in the form of cellulose and starch from the stem. The parameters that will be measured from this study are mechamcal and thermal properties, as well as their morphology.
