For many years, conventional plastics are manufactured and used for packaging
applications in different sectors. As the food industries are increasing, the demand for …

Biodegradable film-based packaging is a current concern to replace packaging that
depends on petroleum. This is because petroleum-based packaging is very unfriendly to the …

Biodegradable films composed of starch and chitosan plasticized by palm oil were
fabricated via a solvent casting technique. In this study, the influence of the ratio of brown …

Wound dressings require good antiseptic properties, mechanical strength and, more
trustably, natural material ingredients. Antimicrobial properties of cerium ions and chitosan …

Bioplastic has been perceived as a promising candidate to replace petroleum-based
plastics due to its environment-friendly and biodegradable characteristics. This study …

Edible films can be designed to serve as carriers of antimicrobial agents and be used to
control pathogenic foodborne viruses and bacteria. This research tested this concept by …

This work aims to develop corn starch/chitosan nanoparticles/thymol (CS/CNP/Thy) bio-
nanocomposite films as potential food packaging materials that can enhance the shelf life of …

The performance as reinforcement of a fibrillar protein such as feather keratin fiber over a
biopolymeric matrix composed of polysaccharides was evaluated in this paper. Three …

In this study, a series of chitosan-sepiolite (CS-SEP) nanocomposites films were prepared
by using a conventional solution casting method. The effect of sepiolite on physicochemical …

In this present study, ternary nanocomposite films of chitosan/starch/halloysite nanotubes
(ChSHT) were fabricated by solution casting process. The ternary nanocomposite films were …
