Morphology and permeability of bio-based poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT), poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) and linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) blend films control shelf-life of packaged bread

Nattinee Bumbudsanpharoke et al.

Summary: Blending PBAT and PBS modified the morphology and permeability of bio-based films, while blending with LLDPE resulted in incompatibility. LLDPE/PBAT films had lower T-alpha than neat PBAT and LLDPE, while T-alpha of PBAT/PBS blends decreased with increasing PBS content, indicating diverse polymer compatibility and molecular mobility.

Edible packaging from hydroxypropyl thermoplastic cassava starch, agar and maltodextrin blends produced by cast extrusion

Phanwipa Wongphan et al.

Summary: The study investigated the effects of different degrees of substitution of hydroxypropyl cassava starch with agar and maltodextrin on the microstructure and properties of edible packaging films. The findings suggested that higher DS starch and agar improved extrusion processability, while maltodextrin increased plasticization and reduced network strength, affecting the overall performance of the films. The combination of agar and maltodextrin also influenced the water vapor and oxygen permeability of the films, showing potential for enhancing the properties of the packaging materials.

Reactive compatibilization and properties of low-cost and high-performance PBAT/thermoplastic starch blends

Juan Bai et al.

Summary: Poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) is widely used in the production of biodegradable films due to its high elongation, flexibility, and processability. However, its high cost compared to traditional plastics such as polyethylene has led to research on reducing PBAT cost through blending with thermoplastic starch (TPS) using reactive epoxy compatibilizer (REC) and two-step extrusion. The results showed that REC improved compatibility and mechanical properties of PBAT/TPS blends, with blends obtained through two-step extrusion showing a bicontinuous phase structure and excellent performance even with high TPS contents.

Antifungal and plasticization effects of carvacrol in biodegradable poly (lactic acid) and poly(butylene adipate terephthalate) blend films for bakery packaging

Phatthranit Klinmalai et al.

Summary: Incorporating carvacrol into biodegradable polymers can produce functional sustainable packaging materials that prolong the shelf-life of food. The research shows that carvacrol-plasticized films have dense matrices and increased crystalline fractions, reducing permeability, delaying fungal growth, and increasing the shelf-life of packaged bread and cake.

Antifungal packaging of sorbate and benzoate incorporated biodegradable films for fresh noodles

Jane Wangprasertkul et al.

Summary: The study demonstrated that the incorporation of 3% and 6% sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate in poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) and thermoplastic starch blends can produce antimicrobial biodegradable packaging materials. Blends containing 6% PS formed homogeneous film microstructures with the highest transparency, mechanical and barrier properties, effectively delaying the growth of Aspergillus niger and Rhizopus sp. while reducing total viable count, yeast, and mold.

Recent advances in thermoplastic starches for food packaging: A review

Sneh Punia Bangar et al.

Summary: The emergence of biopolymer-based materials for food packaging is driven by concerns about depleting natural resources and global environmental issues from petro-based materials. Starch, a sustainable and eco-friendly biopolymer, shows promise in producing biocomposites but faces limitations in mechanical strength. Further research explores the use of plasticizers to create thermoplastic starches for packaging applications.

Active Polypropylene-Based Films Incorporating Combined Antioxidants and Antimicrobials: Preparation and Characterization

Seyed Hadi Peighambardoust et al.

Summary: The study aimed to develop polypropylene films with antioxidant-antimicrobial agents to preserve food quality and inhibit microbial growth. The combination of sorbic acid, butylated hydroxyanisole, and butylated hydroxytoluene showed synergistic effects at reduced concentrations, enhancing mechanical properties of the films compared to individual additives. The prepared active films exhibited desirable properties for food packaging applications, including mechanical strength, thermal stability, antioxidant activity, and antimicrobial properties.
