Packaging of food products is one the most important stages supply chain. Nano-size materials for packing substances with appropriate properties result in better packaging performance and longer shelf-life. In this review, application ZnO nano-size active foods discussed to identify gaps applications safety. First, crystal structures morphologies modified nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) are presented, their synergistic effects on antimicrobial activities discussed. This review also provides an...
A series of PLA/ZnO bionanocomposite films were prepared by introducing positively surface charged zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) into biodegradable poly(lactic acid) (PLA) the solvent casting method, and their physical properties antibacterial activities evaluated. The efficiencies strongly dependent on ZnO NPs content. with over 3% exhibited a rough surface, poor dispersion, hard agglomerates, voids, leading to reduction in crystallinity morphological defects. With increasing content,...
Cellulose from different species of bamboo (Thyrsostachys siamesi Gamble, Dendrocalamus sericeus Munro (DSM), Bambusa logispatha, and sp.) was converted to cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) by a chemical-mechanical method. First, fibers were pre-treated (removal lignin hemicellulose) obtain cellulose. Next, the hydrolyzed with sulfuric acid using ultrasonication CNCs. The diameters CNCs are in range 11-375 nm. DSM showed highest yield crystallinity, which chosen film fabrication. plasticized...
Anti-inflammatory wound healing involves targeted drug delivery to the site using hydrogel materials prolong effectiveness. In this work, films were fabricated carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) crosslinked with citric acid (CA) glutaraldehyde (GA) at different concentrations. The crosslinker densities optimized various CA (2–10% w/v) GA (1–5% v/v) crosslink in exhibited additional functional group peaks FT-IR spectra 1740 cm−1 for C=O stretching of ester linkage...
A series of poly(ether-block-amide) (PEBAX)/polyethylene glycol (PEG) composite films (PBXPG) were prepared by solution casting technique. This study demonstrates how the incorporation different molecular weight PEG into PEBAX can improve as-prepared film performance in gas permeability as a function temperature. Additionally, we investigated effect with weights on transport properties, morphologies, thermal and water sorption. The stability increased increasing PEG, whereas sorption total...
This study investigated the effect of chitosan particle sizes on properties carboxymethyl (CMCh) powders and films. Chitosan with different (75, 125, 250, 450 850 µm) were used to synthesize CMCh powders. The yield, degree substitution (DS), water solubility then determined. films prepared based fabricated by a solution casting technique. solubility, mechanical properties, vapor transmission rate (WVTR) measured. As size decreased, DS, synthesized increased. increase in was due an polarity...
To improve the dimensional thermal stability of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), a poly(ethylene glycol 1,4-cyclohexane dimethylene (CHDM) isosorbide (ISB) terephthalate) (PEICT) known as ECOZEN®T110 (EZT) was introduced into PET using melt blending technique. The miscibility, morphology, and properties PET/EZT samples were investigated. introduction amorphous EZT semi-crystalline increased glass transition temperature (Tg) but decreased crystallinity, which could be related to...
This current work revealed a single-step fabrication of tungsten oxide nanoflakes (WO3 NFs) with the help Terminalia arjuna bark extract. Bioactive phytoconstituents T. extract were involved in nucleation process and promoted material crystalline growth particular direction. The as-prepared sample thermal decomposition was analyzed by TG/DTG. annealed at 300 °C for 2 h, characterized UV-Vis-DRS, FTIR, Raman, XRD, SEM, EDX, TEM. Synthesized WO3 samples showed monoclinic phase flake-like...
The present study aimed to extract nanocellulose (NC) from sugarcane bagasse agricultural waste through a chemical method (sulfuric acid hydrolysis and ultrasonication). Subsequently, the product was conjugated with polylysine (NC–PL) assessed for its efficacy in reducing toxicity of Fumonisin B1 (FB1), mycotoxin produced by fungi commonly found corn, wheat, other grains. Experimental results confirmed successful conjugation NC PL, as evidenced FTIR peaks at 1635 1625 cm−1 indicating amide I...
