This study developed bioactive antioxidant films based on guar gum/carboxymethyl cellulose incorporated with halloysite-nanotubes (HNT) and litchi shell extract (LSE). The addition of LSE notably increased the UV-light barrier properties and antioxidant activity of the films.
The incorporation of bioactive extract from the food waste into biopolymers is a promising green approach to fabricate active films with antioxidant activity for food packaging. The present study developed bioactive antioxidant films based on guar gum/carboxymethyl cellulose incorporated with halloysite-nanotubes (HNT) and litchi shell extract (LSE). The effects of combining HNT and LSE on the physical, mechanical, and antioxidant properties of the films were analyzed. The results showed LSE caused a reduction in tensile strength; however, the elongation at break substantially improved from 29.93 to 62.12%. FTIR revealed covalent interaction and hydrogen bonding between guar gum/carboxymethyl cellulose and LSE. The XRD and SEM study confirmed interactions among the polymer matrix and LSE compounds. The addition of LSE to guar gum/carboxymethyl cellulose films notably increased the UV-light barrier properties. Moreover, the antioxidant activity of all GCH/ LSE substantially improved from 9.46 to 91.52%, more than a ten-fold increase compared to composite neat GCH film. Finally, the oxidative stability of roasted peanuts packed in fabricated GCH/LSE sachets improved after 8 days. Guar gum/carboxymethyl cellulose containing LSE as an antioxidant agent could be applied as food packaging for low water activity oxygen-sensitive food.
