Essential oils (EOs) have received attention in the food industry for developing biopolymer-
derived food packaging materials. EOs are an excellent choice to replace petroleum-derived …

In recent years, the demand for environmental sustainability has caused a great interest in
finding novel polymer materials from natural resources that are both biodegradable and eco …

An edible food packaging gelatin/zein nanofiber film co-loaded with cinnamaldehyde
(CA)/thymol (THY) was developed, which possessed outstanding features conducive to …

The starch/polyvinyl alcohol (ST/PVA) films incorporated with cinnamaldehyde (CIN) and
microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) were developed. The effect of MFC content on the films' …

Sweet potato starch and different celluloses were mixed by thermoplastic extrusion and then
thermoplastic starch/cellulose composite films were prepared using a casting method. The …

Starch films have superior advantages owing to the renewability and low cost of starch;
however, their strong inherent hydrophilic character greatly limits their practical application …

Active and pH-sensitive films of poly (lactic acid)(PLA)/nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) have
been fabricated and tested. The PLA and PLA/NFC films with 1.5% NFC were prepared via …

In this work, the effect of in situ cross-linking of different cations on the properties of pectin-
thymol active films was investigated. Specifically, pectin-thymol composite films (PT) were …

Nowadays, the development of biodegradable packaging materials from natural renewable
sources has attained great attraction in the research field to mitigate environmental …

The nanocellulose (NC) synthesized from cotton linters was used as a reinforcement to
develop biocomposite films with improved functionality. The starch films incorporated with …
