summary |
The water lily (EICHORNIA CRASSIPESSE) is an invasive plant that affects bodies of water throughout the world, generating serious socio-environmental problems. This research uses an experimental approach to study the feasibility of using water lilies to make biobased materials. To achieve this, a hybrid methodology was formulated based on Design Thinking and the Material Driven Design Method divided into three stages called exploratory, material, and functional. The results show a biobased biomaterial with different applicability characteristics in limited use that takes advantage of a harmful and underutilized invasive plant. Establishing its virtue to replace traditional materials. These results show that the water lily is competent as a raw material to be transformed into future materials as an alternative to current environmental problems while attacking its overpopulation. |
