Abstract:
Compostable films for such uses as packaging and agricultural soil covering materials were first produced on commercial scale from blends of biodegradable polyesters and a modified kraft lignin. The lignin consisted of an industrial product isolated according to the LignoBoost process. The lignin modification involved homogeneous phase reaction with propylene oxide, and the films were melt-blown from a pelletized compound consisting of up to a 30% blend of lignin derivative with commercial biodegradable polyester. The 12–93 μm thick films combined the characteristics of lignin as modulus-build

Abstract:
<p>Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) has gained considerable attention as an interesting biobased and biodegradable polymer for film for food packaging applications, due to its many advantages such as biobased nature, high transparency and inherent biodegradable/compostable character. With the dual objective to improve PLA processing performance and to obtain flexible materials, plasticizer are use as strategy for extending PLA applications as compostable film for food packaging applications. Several plasticizers (i.e.: citrate esters, polyethylene glycol (PEG), oligomeric lactic acid (OLA), etc.)

Abstract:
This research analyzed the printability of compostable films commercialized in the Thai market such as PLA/PBAT and PBAT/starch; and to comply with EN 13432 standard by using flexographic water based ink. A narrow web flexographic printing press was set up and opperated. Print quality parameters such as optical density, tone reproduction, print contrast and print uniformity were investigated. Results showed that these compostable films were hydrophobic in nature, in combination with fracture and voids of substrates’ surface. Even the substrates could be printed relatively well but showed poor

Abstract:
Different degradable plastics have been promoted as a solution for the accumulation of waste in landfills and the natural environment; in Mexico, the most popular options are oxo-degradable, which degrade in a sequential abiotic–biotic process, and compostable plastics. In this research, high-density polyethylene, oxo-degradable high-density polyethylene, and certified compostable plastic were exposed to simulated landfill conditions in an 854-day-long experiment to assess their degradation. High-density polyethylene showed limited degradation, due mainly to surface erosion, evidenced by a 13%

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to assess testing parameters for measurement of water vapour permeability (WVP) properties of bovine gelatin films by ASTM F1249. This method utilises an infrared sensor to determine the WVP of conventional plastic-based films and has been widely applied within the packaging industry, but has had very limited application with hydrophilic compostable/edible packaging materials. These films have low WVP properties with highly variable WVP values (as studied by ASTM E96); consequently, this parameter has to be carefully controlled. Assessment of the module was carrie

Abstract:
Nejayote and pericarp derived from nixtamalization are an environmental problem. Therefore, there is research interest in using these residues as new compostable and environmentally friendly materials. This work aimed to create, characterize (color, thickness, water solubility, water adsorption capacity, microstructure, and degradability), and apply biodegradable films using residues of nejayote and pericarp of nixtamalized popcorn. Three types of films were compared, pericarp (P), nejayote–pericarp (NP), and nejayote (N), and were applied to avocado stored at room temperature. Results showed

Abstract:
Abstract One of the routes to minimize the environmental impact of plastics waste is the use of bio-sourced and biodegradable alternatives, particularly for packaging applications. Although Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) are attractive candidates for food packaging, they have poor processability, particularly for extrusion film blowing. Thus, one relatively successful alternative has been blending PHA with a biodegradable polymer. This work proposes film blowing of a co-extruded Poly (hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) layer with a poly butylene adipateco- terephtalate (PBAT) layer to enhance bubble stabilit

This PhD dissertation focuses on the development of renewable and biodegradable active films based on chemically-modified wheat gliadin proteins endowed with antimicrobial capacity owing to the incorporation of naturally-occurring bioactive compounds, namely cinnamaldehyde, natamycin, and lysozyme. Gliadin proteins were treated with cinnamaldehyde at acidic pH and films were produced by casting. The resulting protein-based films presented improved functional properties (mechanical, barrier, and water resistance), and biochemical evidence of the formation of a more compact network whos

Abstract. The aim of this work is to develop a new class of transparent containers for food packaging relying on bioderived polyesters and additives. Usually, transparent containers are manufactured using different plastic materials to achieve mechanical strength, thermal resistance, printability, good visual appearance. Yet, these containers cannot be recycled, being made by multiple polymers. This makes the management of their end-of-life troublesome. In contrast, bioderived polyester can be composted or recycled.
