Bio-Based Coatings on Cellulosic Materials Resistant to Humidity and Fats

Bastián Rozas, Julio E. Bruna, Abél Guarda, María José Galotto et autres

Cellulose stands out as a promising alternative to conventional polymers in food packaging due to its abundance, renewability, biodegradability and structural robustness. Despite these advantages, its natural low resistance to water and fats limits its direct application, necessitating the use of protective …

Influence of the Molar Mass and Concentration of the Polyvinylpyrrolidone on the Physical–Mechanical Properties of Polylactic Acid for Food Packaging

Iván Restrepo, Eliezer Velásquez, María José Galotto, Abél Guarda

Improving the end-of-life performance of polylactic acid (PLA) for food packaging requires strategies that enhance biodegradability, solubility, and dispersibility without compromising essential material properties. PLA-based films were produced by melt extrusion using polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as a hydrophilic modifier, aiming to enhance the …

Poly(lactic acid) and copper‐modified montmorillonite nanocomposite films for antimicrobial food packaging

Julio E. Bruna, Cristina Muñoz‐Shugulí, L. Carolina Espinoza, Andrea Herrera et autres

Abstract Polymer‐based nanocomposites loaded with metal nanoparticles are an interesting alternative for the development of antimicrobial food packaging. However, affinity and dispersion of metal nanoparticles could be improved using nanoclays. Therefore, nanocomposite films based on poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and copper modified‐montmorillonite were …
