Abstract Properties of film-forming dispersion (FFD) and emulsion film incorporated with palm oil containing soy lecithin at 50 % and 75 % (w/w, based on palm oil) and emulsified with different microfluidization pressures (6.89, 13.79 and 20.68 MPa) and pass numbers (2 and 4) were investigated. Microfluidized FFD containing 50 % soy lecithin showed the smaller oil droplet size. The lower water vapor permeability with higher tensile strength and elongation at break were found for films from microfluidized FFD (p < 0.05). Films containing 50 % soy lecithin had higher light transmittance and lower b*- and ΔE*-values than those containing 75 % soy lecithin (p < 0.05). Smooth surface and compact cross-section were observed in films from microfluidized FFD. Film from microfluidized FFD containing 50 % soy lecithin showed higher thermal stability. Thus, the emulsion film with improved properties could be prepared from FFD using 50 % soy lecithin with the aid of microfluidization.

Viscous Modulus

Rheological and film forming properties of fish gelatin modified by transglutaminase (TGase) were investigated. The results indicated that the modified gels had higher gel strength of 101.4 g and 118.6 g with added TGase of 1% and 2 %, respectively. Elastic modulus (G'), viscous modulus (G'') of modified gels were significantly increased by the addition of 2% TGase. Tensile strength (TS) and elongation at break (EAB) of modified film increased by 38.2% and 137.1%, respectively, compared with the control film (P<0.05). The use of TGase significantly decreased water vapor permeability (WVP) of resulting film. Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and microstructure analysis denoted a certain degree of interference of TGase in the arrangement of gelatin molecules.

Zein was added into wheat gluten (WG) to prepare zein composite films (ZCF) in order to improve the properties of films. The film-forming ability, properties, surface microstructure and infrared spectrum of WG films and ZCF were investigated. The results show that the viscosity of film-forming solutions decrease, and uniformity become worse slightly, after zein added. ZCF are yellow, with metal luster, whose toughness and water retention increase. Compared to the control, the ZCF tensile strength (TS), elongation at break (EB) and resistance of oxygen are increased by 33.2%, 17.2% and 11.25%, and water vapor permeability (WVP) and transparency are decreased by 26.0% and 75.4% respectively. ZCF have better antibacterial properties than WG films. The inhibition effect on escherichia coli and staphylococcus aureus are increased by 36.36% and 32.89% respectively. Hydrogen bond interaction of ZCF become weak, and the surface of ZCF become smooth and evenly.

Litchi Pericarp

Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) pericarp contains abundant polyphenols that are suitable materials for developing active packaging films. In this study, 1 wt%, 3 wt% and 5 wt% of litchi pericarp extract (LPE) was added into qua-ternary ammonium chitosan (QAC) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) matrix to develop active packaging films. The structural, physical and functional properties of QAC-PVA (QP) films were compared with LPE (QP-LPE films) and without LPE (QP films). Results showed QP film had a heterogenous cross-section whereas QP-LPE films displayed rough and uneven cross-sections. After adding LPE, the N–H, O–H, C–H and C=O stretching bands of QP films shifted due to the formation of intermolecular interactions between LPE and film matrix. LPE made the colorless QP film turned brown. QP-LPE films presented lower ultraviolet–visible light transmittance than QP film. After adding LPE, film thickness increased from 0.091 to 0.103 mm, film water vapor permeability increased from 14.98 × 10−11 to 17.21 × 10−11 g m−1 s−1 Pa−1, film oxygen permeability increased from 0.16 to 0.22 cm3 mm m−2 day−1 atm−1, film tensile strength increased from 14.10 to 17.41 MPa, and film elongation at break decreased from 36.94% to 25.13%. QP-LPE films quickly released polyphenols in distilled water within 4 h and displayed potent antioxidant activity. The antimicrobial ratio of the film against Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes was elevated from 50.40−68.04% to 58.93−91.38% after adding LPE. Results suggested QP-LPE films could be utilized as antioxidant and antimicrobial packaging materials in food industry.

Edible films from wheat gluten were prepared with various amounts of glycerol as a plasticizer. Water vapor permeability, oxygen permeability, tensile strength and percentage elongation at break at different water activities ( aw ) were measured. Films with low amounts of glycerol had lower water vapor and oxygen permeabilities, higher tensile strength and lower elongation at break. Wheat gluten coatings reduced weight loss during two weeks of storage for cherry tomatoes and sharon fruits compared to uncoated controls. A bilayer film of wheat gluten and beeswax significantly lowered weight loss from coated cheese cubes compared to single layer coating of wheat gluten.;

Nanofibers isolated from unbleached neutral sulfite rice straw pulp were used to prepare transparent films without the need to modify the isolated rice straw nanofibers (RSNF). RSNF with loading from 1.25 to 10 wt.% were mixed with cellulose acetate (CA) solution in acetone and films were formed by casting. The films were characterized regarding their transparency and light transmittance, microstructure, mechanical properties, crystallinity, water contact angle, porosity, water vapor permeability, and thermal properties. The results showed good dispersion of RSNF in CA matrix and films with good transparency and homogeneity could be prepared at RSNF loadings of less than 5%. As shown from contact angle and atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements, the RSNF resulted in increased hydrophilic nature and roughness of the films. No significant improvement in tensile strength and Young’s modulus was recorded as a result of adding RSNF to CA. Addition of the RSNF did not significantly affect the porosity, crystallinity and melting temperature of CA, but slightly increased its glass transition temperature.

In this study, feather keratin/polyvinyl alcohol/tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (FK/PVA/Tris) bionanocomposite films containing graphene oxide (GO) (0.5, 1, 2, and 3 wt%) or graphene (0.5, 1, 2, and 3 wt%) were prepared using a solvent casting method. The scanning electron microscopy results indicated that the dispersion of GO throughout the film matrix was better than that of graphene. The successful formation of new hydrogen bonds between the film matrix and GO was confirmed through the use of Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The tensile strength, elastic modulus, and initial degradation temperature of the films increased, whereas the total soluble mass, water vapor permeability, oxygen permeability, and light transmittance decreased following GO or graphene incorporation. In summary, nanoblending is an effective method to promote the application of FK/PVA/Tris-based blend films in the packaging field.

To improve the functional properties of starch-based films, chitin (CH) was prepared from shrimp shell powder and incorporated into corn starch (CS) matrix. Before blending, maleic anhydride (MA) was introduced as a cross-linker. Composite CS/MA-CH films were obtained by casting-evaporation approach. Mechanical property estimation showed that addition of 0–7 wt % MA-CH improved the tensile strength of starch films from 3.89 MPa to 9.32 MPa. Elongation at break of the films decreased with the addition of MA-CH, but the decrease was obviously reduced than previous studies. Morphology analysis revealed that MA-CH homogeneously dispersed in starch matrix and no cracks were found in the CS/MA-CH films. Incorporation of MA-CH decreased the water vapor permeability of starch films. The water uptake of the films was reduced when the dosage of MA-CH was below 5 wt %. Water contact angles of the starch films increased from 22° to 86° with 9 wt % MA-CH incorporation. Besides, the composite films showed better inhibition effect against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus than pure starch films.

In this study, feather keratin/polyvinyl alcohol/tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (FK/PVA/Tris) bionanocomposite films containing two types of nanoparticles, namely one-dimensional sodium montmorillonite (MMT) clay platelets (0.5, 1, 3, and 5 wt%) and three-dimensional TiO2 nanospheres (0.5, 1, 3, and 5 wt%), are prepared using solvent casting method. X-ray diffraction studies confirm the completely exfoliated structure of FK/PVA/Tris/MMT nanocomposites. The successful formation of new hydrogen bonds between the hydroxyl groups of the film matrix and the nanofillers is confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The tensile strength, elongation at break, and initial degradation temperature of the films are enhanced after MMT and TiO2 incorporation. The water vapor permeability, oxygen permeability, and light transmittance decrease with increase in TiO2 and MMT contents. In summary, nanoblending is an effective method to promote the application of FK/PVA/Tris blend films in the packaging field.

This paper explains and demonstrates the effects of beeswax on functional and structural properties of soy protein isolate films, containing different glycerol. The results showed that percentage elongation at break, water vapor permeability, and transparency of soy protein isolate films decreased when the beeswax content increased, but tensile strength and oxygen permeability increased. The higher the glycerol content, the higher the film water vapor permeability, oxygen permeability, and transparency. The results of differential scanning calorimetry and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy suggested that beeswax cross-linked with soy protein isolate molecules via connecting with glycerol, composed the film matrix.
