Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization and antimicrobial activity studies of polypropylene films with carvacrol and thymol for active packaging
TL;DR: In this article, a complete thermal, structural, mechanical and functional characterization of all formulations was carried out, and the obtained results proved the permanence of certain amounts of the studied additives in the polymer matrix after processing making them able to be used as active additives in PP formulations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Gelatin-Based Films and Coatings for Food Packaging Applications
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss the latest advances in the composition of gelatin-based edible films and coatings, including nanoparticle addition, and their properties are reviewed along their potential for application in the food packaging industry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent Trends in the Use of Pectin from Agro-Waste Residues as a Natural-Based Biopolymer for Food Packaging Applications.
TL;DR: This review aims to present the latest research results regarding pectin, including the structure, different types, natural sources and potential use in several sectors, particularly in food packaging materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of novel nano-biocomposite antioxidant films based on poly (lactic acid) and thymol for active packaging.
TL;DR: The amount of thymol remaining in these formulations was determined by liquid chromatography (HPLC-UV) and the antioxidant activity by the DPPH spectroscopic method, suggesting that the formulated nano-biocomposites could be considered a promising antioxidant active packaging material.
