Preparation and Properties of Poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)/thermoplastic Hydroxypropyl Starch Composite Films Reinforced with Nano-Silica

Zehao Li et al.

Summary: By adding nano-silica, the tensile strength of poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)/thermoplastic hydroxypropyl starch (PBAT/TPHSg-SiO2) composite films is significantly improved, with a 35% increase in horizontal tensile strength and a 21% increase in vertical tensile strength after adding 4 phr of nano-silica. When the content of TPHSg-4SiO2 is 40%, the composite films have horizontal and vertical tensile strengths of 9.82 and 12.09 MPa, respectively, and the elongation at break exceeds 500%. Electron micrographs show that TPHSg-4SiO2 is well dispersed in PBAT and exhibits a bi-continuous phase structure at a TPHSg-4SiO2 content of 40%. The blowing PBAT/TPHSg-4SiO2 composite films effectively reduce the cost and still show better mechanical properties, suitable for packaging applications.

Evaluation of the Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Potential of SiO2 Modified with Cinnamon Essential Oil (Cinnamomum Verum) for Its Use as a Nanofiller in Active Packaging PLA Films

Veronica Martinez-Aguilar et al.

Summary: One of the main causes of food spoilage is lipid oxidation, which leads to loss of nutrients and color, as well as the growth of pathogenic microorganisms. Active packaging, using polylactic acid (PLA) and silicon dioxide (SiO2) nanoparticles modified with cinnamon essential oil (CEO), has been developed to minimize these effects. The modified nanoparticles showed strong inhibition against E. coli and high radical inhibition and cell viability. Films prepared with these nanoparticles exhibited improved tensile strength and Young's modulus, but decreased water solubility. Packaging prepared with the modified nanoparticles showed good results in terms of color difference, organic acid degradation, weight loss, and pH, making CEO-SiO2 a promising component for active packaging.
