Characterization of Biodegradable Films Made from Taro Peel (Colocasia esculenta) Starch

Rusta Bidari et al.

Summary: Studies on renewable polymers have shown that starch can be used as a replacement for petroleum-based components to produce biodegradable films with plastic-like qualities. This study introduces the use of taro peel starch (TPS) for the first time in producing such films using the casting technique. The effects of different concentrations of TPS and glycerol on the properties of the TPS films were investigated, and their optimized values were determined using the response surface method. The TPS films exhibited desirable physico-mechanical and water barrier properties, making them a promising option for food packaging.

Effects of glycerol and sorbitol on a novel biodegradable edible film based on Malva sylvestris flower gum

Zeinab Jaderi et al.

Summary: An edible film based on Malva sylvestris flower gum was fabricated with different concentrations of glycerol and sorbitol as plasticizers. The addition of plasticizers affected the physical and mechanical properties of the film, with glycerol-based samples showing higher elongation at break. The density of the film decreased with the addition of plasticizers. The moisture content, water contact angle, and water solubility of the film increased with increasing plasticizer concentration.

Cellulosic pine needles-based biorefinery for a circular bioeconomy

Ashvinder K. Rana et al.

Summary: This article reviews various efforts made to tackle the issue of pine needle waste. Pine needles have been utilized in composite materials, water purification, electronic devices, etc. Gasification, pyrolysis, saccharification combined with fermentation, and catalyst-assisted pyrolysis are promising techniques for converting pine needles into bio-energy and water purification materials. Nano cellulose extracted from pine needles exhibits appealing thermal and mechanical strength. Studying the magnetic properties of pine needles provides insights into air quality in the surrounding environment, and packaging materials made from pine needles have exceptional ethylene scavenging abilities.

Development and characterization of antimicrobial protein films based on soybean protein isolate incorporating diatomite/thymol complex

Hejun Wu et al.

Summary: In this study, diatomite was used as an effective carrier to obtain a diatomite/thymol complex, which was further incorporated into soybean protein isolate to develop antimicrobial protein films. The complex showed improved dispersibility and compatibility in the protein matrix, leading to a film with moderate mechanical and water barrier properties. Additionally, diatomite helped reduce thymol loss during film formation and storage, prolonging its antimicrobial effect against Escherichia coli.

Effects of soy protein isolate on mechanical and hydrophobic properties of oxidized corn starch film

Chenglong Liu et al.

Summary: The study focused on improving the mechanical properties and moisture barrier of oxidized corn starch (OS) film by incorporating soy protein isolate (SPI) at different ratios and pH values. The increase in SPI ratio and pH led to reduced moisture content and improved moisture barrier, as shown by lower water vapor permeability and higher contact angle. The blended films exhibited denser microstructures and smoother surfaces at higher pH values, suggesting interference with the intermolecular interaction of OS by SPI.
