文摘Petrochemical plastics are widely used for food protection and preservation;however,they exhibit poor biodegradability,resisting natural degradation through physical,chemical,or enzymatic processes.As a sustainable alternative to conventional plastic packaging,edible films offer effective barriers against moisture,gases,and microbial contamination while being biodegradable,biocompatible,and environmentally friendly.In this study,novel active food packaging materials(in film form)were developed by incorporating starch,carrageenan,nanocellulose(NC),Aloe vera,and hibiscus flower extract.The effects of varying the matrix composition(26.5–73.5 wt.%starch/carrageenan),NC concentration(2.77-17.07 wt.%),and particle type(fibers or crystals)on the film structure and characteristics were analyzed using various methods.Scanning electron microscopy demonstrated good homogeneity and effective dispersion of NC within the blendmatrix.An increased carrageenan content in the filmimproved wettability,moisture absorption,solubility,and water vapor permeability.The mechanical properties of the films were enhanced by NC incorporation and higher carrageenan content.The developed films also exhibited effective UV radiation barriers and biodegradability.Films with low carrageenan content(less than 33.3%)and high NC content(7%,10% crystals or 10%,15% fibers)exhibited optimal properties,including enhanced water resistance,hydrophobicity,and mechanical strength,along with reduced water vapor permeability.However,the high water solubility and moisture absorption(above 55% and 14%,respectively)indicated their unsuitability as packaging materials for food products with wet surfaces and high humidity.The results suggest that these films are well suited for use as edible food packaging for fruits and vegetables.

文摘Growing environmental concerns and the need for sustainable alternatives to synthetic materials have led to increased interest in bio-based composites.This study investigates the development and characterization of sustainable egg packaging waste(EPW)biocomposites derived from recycled wood fibers and fungal mycelium filaments as a natural binder.Three formulations were prepared using EPW as the primary substrate,with and without the addition of hemp shives and sawdust as co-substrates.The composites were evaluated for granulometry,density,mechanical strength,hygroscopic behavior,thermal conductivity,and fire performance using cone calorimetry.Biocomposites,composed exclusively of egg packaging waste,exhibited favorable fire resistance,lower total heat release(THR)and total smoke release(TSR),extended time to ignition(TTI),reduced hygroscopicity,and higher flexural strength.Biocomposites,containing hemp shives,demonstrated improved compressive strength and thermal insulation but showed weaker fire resistance.Biocomposites,incorporating sawdust,showed intermediate properties with the longest flameout time(TTF)and highest heat release values.Overall,the results demonstrate that EPW-based biocomposites can be tailored through substrate composition to achieve desirable combinations of mechanical,thermal,and fire-retardant properties,highlighting their potential as sustainable alternatives to conventional syntheticmaterials in building and packaging applications.

文摘Interest in the use of cellulose nanomaterial’s continues to grow,both in research and industry,not only due to the abundance of raw materials,low toxicity and sustainability,but also due to the attractive physical and chemical properties that make nanocelluloses useful for a wide range of end-use applications.Among the large number of potential uses,and nanocelluloses modification and processing strategies,the chosen topic of this review focuses exclusively on plant-derived cellulose microfibers/nanofibers(CNF)and cellulose nanocrystals(CNC)processed into 2D structures—nanopapers and nanofilms—fabricated as self-standing films or applied as coatings.The end uses considered are:combinationwith standard papers and cardboards for packaging,mendingmaterial for the conservation and protection of cellulosic heritage artifacts,and component-parts of complex designs of functional devices for energy harvesting and storage.In these contexts,nanocelluloses provide high mechanical and ecofriendly properties,transparency and tunable haze,as well as flexibility/bendability in the resulting films.All these characteristics make them extremely attractive to a market seeking for sustainable,light weight and low cost raw materials for the production of goods.General perspectives on the current advantages and disadvantages of using CNF and CNC in the selected areas are also reviewed.
文摘The food industry prioritizes food safety throughout the entire production process.This involves closely monitoring and evaluating all potential sources of biological or chemical contamination,starting from entering raw materials into the production chain and continuing to the final product.Biofilms on food surfaces or containers can harbor dangerous pathogens,such as Listeria monocytogenes.Therefore,it is essential to continuously manage microbial contamination on food contact surfaces to prevent foodborne infections.Recently,there has been increasing interest in using nanomaterials as surface coatings with antimicrobial properties in the food industry,especially since traditional disinfectants or antibiotics may contribute to developing resistance.However,the use of antibiofilm materials for long-term food storage remains underexplored,and there is a notable lack of focused reviews on nanomaterialbased antibiofilm coatings specifically for long-term food preservation.This review aims to consolidate recently reported nanoparticle-based antibiofilm food packaging materials.We discuss the effectiveness of various metal and metal oxide nanoparticles and biopolymer nanocomposites in combating biofilms.Additionally,we highlight the growing importance of biodegradable nanocomposite materials for antibiofilm food packaging.Furthermore,we explore the mechanisms of action,processing methods,and safety aspects of these nanomaterials being developed for food packaging applications.

文摘Traditional packaging plastics derived from fossil fuels for perishable foods have caused severe environmental pollution and resource depletion.To promote sustainable development and reduce wastage of perishable products,there is a significant challenge in developing biobased packaging plastics that offer excellent preservation,satisfactory mechanical performance,and inherent degradability.In this study,poly(urethane-urea)(PUU)plastics are fabricated using a one-pot polyaddition reaction involving castor oil(CO),tannic acid(TA),lysine-derived ethyl 2,6-diisocyanatohexanoate(LDI),and H2O.The resulting PUU plastics demonstrate a high breaking strength of about 32.7 MPa and a strain at break of ca.102%.Due to the reversibility of hydrogen bonds,PUU plastics can be easily shaped into various forms.They are non-cytotoxic and suitable for food packaging.With a high TA content of ca.38.2 wt%,PUU plastics exhibit excellent antioxidant capacity.Consequently,PUU plastics show outstanding freshness preservation performance,extending the shelf life of cherry tomatoes and winter jujubes for at least 8 days at room temperature.Importantly,PUU plastics can autonomously degrade into non-toxic substances within ca.298 days when buried in soil.
文摘With the growing demands for food safety,quality,and environmental protection,active food packaging is playing an increasingly vital role in the food industry.Traditional food packaging primarily protects products and facilitates transportation.Active food packaging,however,not only fulfills these fundamental functions but also actively interacts with the food or its environment to extend shelf life and enhance food safety.From current research advancements and market applications,active food packaging demonstrates the following prominent development trends.

文摘Nano-twinned copper(nt-Cu),with a preferred orientation,is highly promising as interconnect materials in high-density advanced packaging due to its considerable mechanical strength,excellent electrical conductivity,and resistance to thermal migration.However,its application is impeded by sulfur-containing byproducts from the electroplating process,exacerbating the formation of Kirkendall voids within solder joints during thermal aging.Herein,through the incorporation of Zinc(Zn)into the nt-Cu layer,we develop a nt-Cu/Zn composite structure.Our findings provide the first definitive confirmation of the mechanism by which sulfur atoms migrate to the Cu_(3)Sn/nt-Cu interface through interstitial diffusion,thereby reducing the activation energy for vacancy formation.We further demonstrate that Zn effectively an-choring sulfur atoms,forming ZnS within the nt-Cu layer during heat treatment,which increases the vacancy formation energy and inhibits the development of Kirkendall voids.Remarkably,no Kirkendall voids are observed in the modified interconnects even after prolonged aging at 150℃ for 1000 h.The nt-Cu/Zn composite metallization layers significantly decrease the growth rate of interfacial intermetallic compounds by 33.6% and enhance the shear strength of solder interconnections to 228.9%.This research underscores the potential of nt-Cu in advanced electronic packaging,offering new pathways for improving the power density and reliability of electronic devices.
