Antimicrobial cellulose acetate films by incorporation of geranyl acetate for active food packaging application

Cellulose Acetate Nanofiltration Membranes for Cadmium Remediation

In this work, cellulose acetate (CA) nanofiltration (NF) membranes were prepared via non-solvent phase inversion technique (NIPS). Polymer concentration was varied from 22 to 25 wt% in order to study its effect on the membrane properties. The fabricated membranes were characterized in terms of morphological analysis using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), contact angle, water content, water p...

Characterization of nano-biocomposite films reinforced with nanofibrillated cellulose and montmorillonite as a potential application for Food packaging industry

In this study, polyvinyl alcohol- Nanofibrillated cellulose –Montmorillonite (PVA-NFC-MMT)and Ethylene-vinyl acetate- Nanofibrillated cellulose –Montmorillonite (EVA-NFC-MMT) nanocompositescontaining 2% weight of NFC and MMT were prepared by melt blending method. Then, the effect ofNFC and MMT as reinforcing materials on biodegradability, morphology, and mechanical, thermal an...

Application of Genetic Programming as a Powerful Tool for Modeling of Cellulose Acetate Membrane Preparation

Active Packaging for Food Applications - A Review

The purpose of food packaging is to preserve the quality and safety of the food it contains from the time of manufacture to the time it is used by the consumer. Recently, the demand for safe and high quality foods, as well as changes in consumer preferences have led to the development of innovative and novel approaches in food packaging technology. One such development is the active food packag...
