The study found that argon plasma treatment was more effective in improving the tensile strength of the films, while air plasma treatment was better at enhancing the stretchability of the films. After argon treatment, the solubility and hydrophilicity of the films increased, and oxygen permeability also improved.
The aim of this study was to examine mechanical and physical properties of starch/chitosan composite film exposed to low-pressure air and argon plasma at 600 mTorr for different duration (4, 8 and 12 min) and evaluate the shelf life of the chicken breast fillet packaged with plasma-treated films. The mechanical properties of the composite films were improved significantly. It is shown that argon plasma is more efficient in improving the tensile strength of the films and increased it from 10.59 to 22.09 Mpa after 12 min of process due to the formation of a stable cross-linked network on the surface of the polymer, although film's stretchability, modified in air plasma, was significantly more. Solubility and hydrophilicity of the films were increased; however, no significant change in the water vapor transmission rate was observed. Oxygen permeability of films improved after both plasma treatment. Total viable count and oxidative (TBA) changes of fillets were analyzed during shelf life. The results showed that Cold plasma treatment could not prolong the shelf life of the fillets through plasma-treated films.
