This research paper deals with the synthesis of biodegradable composites of black gram with resorcinol-formaldehyde as crosslinker. Acid, base and water resistance properties of the composites were also done. Biodegradation studies of the samples were done using soil composting method. Different stages of biodegradation were characterized using scanning electron microscopic studies.
