The Cover Feature shows a very strong, super tough, antibacterial, and UV‐blocking biodegradable poly(vinyl alcohol) nanocomposite film, in which the homogeneously interspersed antibacterial agent TA@LS‐Ag of about 20 nm was prepared from the green biomass sodium lignosulfonate and tannic acid with extremely low silver content (0.032–0.32 wt ‰).
