The objective of this work was to investigate the color stability in air under photo-oxidative degradation influencing consumer acceptance and biodegradation behaviors in soil of soy protein isolate (SPI)/poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) blend packaging films during 30 days. The results showed that PVA could dilute the yellow color and make the SPI-based films less darkness in application and the transparency of SPI/PVA films at various stages of degradation was improved. Aerobic biodegradation of films in soil proved that the PVA compound interacting with protein imposed negative effects on biodegradation of blend films prolonging their decomposing time. The SPI/PVA blend films decomposed into small fragments of less complex molecules along with surface completely digested after 30 days.

The aim of the present work was to investigate the moisture sensitivity of soy protein isolate (SPI) films blending with poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) plasticized by glycerol. Water vapor permeability (WVP) was measured based on the contents of PVA and glycerol in films. WVP values of various SPI/PVA films with/without glycerol were in the range of 8.25 and 10.9 g mm/m2 h kPa. The results showed that WVP values decreased with the increasing content of PVA. Moreover, XRD tests confirmed that the glycerol would insert into the macromolecular blending structure and destroy the crystalline of blends, and the crosslinkage between glycerol molecules and SPI reduced the interstitial spaces in protein matrix, thus allowing for decreasing diffusion rate of water molecules through the films.
