Abstract In recent decades, the ozone layer has suffered considerable damage, increasing the entry of ultraviolet (UV) light
into the atmosphere and reaching the earth’s surface, negatively affecting life. Accordingly, researchers aimed to
solve this problem by synthesizing advanced UV-shielding materials. On the other hand, developing an easy and
green strategy to prepare functional materials with outstanding properties based on naturally abundant and environmentally friendly raw materials is highly desirable for sustainable development. Because biomass-derived materials are sustainable and biodegradable, they present a promising substitute for petroleum-based polymers. The
