Paper Title
Study on Obtaining and Characterization of Collagen Films with Agricultural Applications

Abstract
This research focuses on extracting collagen from protein by-products, additivation and crosslinking in order to form films with potential applications in agriculture. Collagen films were analyzed by microscopy, FT-IR/ATR spectroscopy, nanoindentation, determination of contact angles and tensile strength, to highlight the most important properties for envisaged applications. Keywords - Collagen, Film, Elasticity, Agricultural use.
