Development and Characterization of Films Based on Chemically Cross-Linked Gliadins†

Pilar Hernández-Muñoz, +3 more
- 23 Sep 2005 - 
TL;DR: Experimental results showed that some properties of gliadin films were considerably modified, as a function of the cross-linker used, and modification with glutaraldehyde or glyoxal imparted an increasingly yellowish tint to the films.
Journal ArticleDOI

Water effect on the morphology of EVOH copolymers

Susana Aucejo, +2 more
- 31 Oct 1999 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of water on the morphology of four ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymers (EVOH) with different ethylene contents was studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).
Journal ArticleDOI

Barrier properties of sodium caseinate films as affected by lipid composition and moisture content

María José Fabra, +3 more
- 01 Apr 2012 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed the effect of lipid addition (oleic acid, beeswax and oleic acid-beeswax mixtures) as well as the influence of the relative humidity (RH), or the equilibrium water content of the films, on the permeability of sodium caseinate based films to water vapor and gas (oxygen and carbon dioxide).
Journal ArticleDOI

Stabilized Naked Sub-nanometric Cu Clusters within a Polymeric Film Catalyze C–N, C–C, C–O, C–S, and C–P Bond-Forming Reactions

Judit Oliver-Meseguer, +9 more
- 16 Mar 2015 - 
TL;DR: A potential mechanism for the formation of the sub-nanometric clusters and their electronic nature is presented and they are ready to be used on demand and maintain high activity and selectivity for the above reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel antimicrobial zein film for controlled release of lauroyl arginate (LAE)

Mahboobeh Kashiri, +5 more
- 01 Dec 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a novel antimicrobial biopolymer films based on the incorporation of ethyl-Nα-dodecanoyl-l- l -arginate hydrochloride (LAE) in zein matrices were manufactured and characterized as materials for LAE controlled released applications such as active food packaging.
