Abstract The edible film is a thin layer derived from edible materials and formed on top of food components serving as an inhibitor of mass transfer (e.g., moisture, oxygen, fat, and dissolved substances), a carrier of foodstuffs, and an additive to improve food handling. Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) contains lactic acid bacteria that are probiotics and anti-microbial, adding edible whey film to utilize cheese waste into biodegradable packaging. The research aims to study the effect of VCO on barrier, mechanical, and microstructure whey edible films. This research used whey, VCO, glycerol, and Carboxymethyl Cellulose (CMC). The treatment in this study was the addition of VCO namely A (0%), B (0.5%), C (1%), D (1.5%) and E (2%). The result of the research showed that whey edible films with the addition VCO affected (P<0.05) physical properties (thickness and solubility time) and no effect (P>0.05) on mechanical properties (tensile strength and elongation) and microstructure.

Plastics are widely used as packaging materials but can cause environmental problems because they are not easily degraded. Therefore, it was necessary to find alternative packaging materials that were easily degraded, including edible film. The main raw materials for edible film were alginate and plasticizers including glycerol and virgin coconut oil (VCO). The aims of this study were to determine the characteristics of edible films composed of alginate, glycerol and VCO and to determine the best concentration of alginate in edible films. The study was carried out through the manufacture of edible films composed of alginates at various concentrations (2, 3, 4, 5 and 6%), 10% glycerol and 0.01% VCO. The characteristics observed included thickness, tensile strength, elongation, solubility, and water vapor transmission rate (WVTR). The results showed that increasing the concentration of alginate increased the thickness, tensile strength, and elongation of edible films but reduced the solubility and WVTR of edible films. The best alginate concentration was 4% with the following characteristics: thickness, 0.12±0.01 mm; tensile strength, 1.59±0.12 MPa; elongation, 48.73±1.97%; solubility, 92.07±0.57%; and WVTR, 49.18±0.59 g/m2.24 hours. The various alginate concentrations significantly affected the thickness, tensile strength, elongation, and water vapor transmission rate of the edible film produced.

Virgin Coconut Oil

This research aims to study the unique factors of virgin coconut oil (VCO) compared with coconut oil (i.e., coconut oil processed through heating the coconut milk and palm oil sold on the market). Its novelty is that it (VCO) contains lactic acid bacteria and bacteriocin. Lauric acid content was analyzed by the Chromatographic Gas method. Isolation of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) was conducted by the dilution method using MRSA + 0.5% CaCO3 media. Iodium number, peroxide, and %FFA were analyzed using a general method, and isolation bacteriocin by the deposition method using ammonium sulfate. In addition, macromolecular identification was conducted by 16S rRNA. VCO was distinguished by a higher content of lauric acid (C12:0) 41%–54.5% as compared with 0% coconut and 0, 1% palm oil, respectively. The VCO also contains LAB, namely Lactobacillus plantarum and Lactobacillus paracasei, and can inhibit the growth of pathogenic bacteria, such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella, Staphylococcus aureus, S. epidermidis, Proteus, Escherichia coli, Listeria monocytogenes, Bacillus cereus, Salmonella typhosa and bacteriocin. Comparison with VCO is based on having a high content of lauric acid, 54%, and LAB content. The difference between VCO and coconut oil and palm oil is fatty acids. In VCO there are lauric acid and stearic acid, namely lauric acid VCO (A) 54.06%, VCO (B) 53.9% and VCO (C) 53.7%. The content of stearic acid VCO (A) is 12.03%, VCO (B) 12.01% and VCO (C) 11.9%. Coconut oil contains a little lauric acid, which is 2.81%, stearic acid 2.65% and palmitic acid 2.31%. Palm oil can be said to have very little lauric acid, namely in palm oil 1, 0.45%, and even in palm oil 2, 0%; in turn, palmitic acid palm oil 1 has 2.88% and palm oil 2 palmitic acid has 24.42%.

A facile route was proposed to fabricate core–sheath microfibers, and the relationships among processing parameters, crystalline structures and the mechanical properties were investigated. The compression molded poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate) (PHBH)/poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) strip enhanced the spinnability of PHBH and the mechanical properties of PLLA as well. The core–sheath ratio of the fibers was determined by the prefab strip, while the PLLA sheath component did not completely cover the PHBH core component due to the weak interfacial tension between the melts of PHBH and PLLA. A rotational target was applied to collect aligned fibers, which were further drawn in a water bath. The tensile strength and the modulus of as-spun and drawn fibers increased with increasing the take-up velocities. When the take-up velocity was above 500 m/min, the jet became unstable and started to break up at the tip of the Taylor cone, decreasing the mechanical properties of the fibers. The drawing process facilitated the crystallization of PLLA and PHBH, and the tensile strength and the modulus increased linearly with the increasing the draw ratio. The crystal information displayed from wide-angle X-ray diffraction patterns and differential scanning calorimetry heating curves supported the results of the tensile tests.

The modified rice straw fibers (MRSF) were prepared by suspension polymerization technique of butyl acrylate (BA) monomer and rice straw fibers (RSF) in water solution. FTIR test indicated that PBA was coated and absorbed on RSF.The biodegradable composites were prepared with the MRSF and poly(lactic acid) (PLA) by HAAKE rheometer. Mechanical properties showed that the tensile strength of PLA/MRSF composites were (W (%) =7.98%) increased by 6 MPa compared with blank sample. The possible reason was that the good interfacial adhesion between PLA and MRSF, which was demonstrated by SEM.

Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) fiber, owing to its biocompatibility and biodegradability, could be widely used in many related industrial areas. However, high brittleness has been the main obstacle to expanding its applications. So in this paper, carbon nanotube (CNT) nanocapsules were designed to toughen PLA and further reported their effect on the crystallization behavior and mechanical properties of PLA complex fiber. These designed CNT nanocapsules successfully solved the agglomeration of CNTs within the PLA matrix as well as the compatibility issue. In addition, the morphological, mechanical, optical and thermal properties of PLA complex fibers were also studied. The addition of CNT nanocapsules obviously improved the crystallization behavior of PLA fiber. Furthermore, compared with pure PLA, the tensile strength of PLA complex fiber was enhanced by 30.62% and the elongation by 32.2%, so the designed CNT nanocapsules could be used as a toughener for PLA fiber. This research benefits the extension of PLA applications where toughness is an important factor.
