barbari is a common iranian flat bread that has a short shelf life. the effect of low density polyethylene/clay nanocomposite film was investigated for the package and shelf life of the flat bread when stored at different temperatures and relative humilities with different percentages of nanoparticles. nanoclay concentrations of 2% and 6% were used for the nanocomposite and pure polyethylene wa...

for the purpose of increasing the permeability to oxygen and equilibrium water content in contact lenses, polar copolymers with nonionic monomers such as 2-hydroxyethle methacrylate(hema) is used. by adding the polar monomers to (hema), the permeability to oxygen and equilibrium with water content is increased and also the absorption of proteins on lens surface is changed. in this research, the...

The oxygen permeability (Dk) of ten 24-hr collagen shields was measured directly by polarographic methodology at approximately 2 hr of hydration. Edge and boundary effects were included in the calculations. Dk was found to be approximately 26 x 10(-11) cm ml O2/sec ml mmHg at 35 degrees C. Mean water content of the shields was 65.7% (SD = 1.0%) as measured by a hand refractometer. Therefore, th...

the hybrid molten/solid in2o3 - 30-48 wt.% bi2o3 oxide materials were studied with respect to their transport properties. the conductivities, oxygen ion transport numbers and oxygen permeation fluxes have been measured by using the four-probe dc, volumetric measurements of the faradaic efficiency and gas flow techniques, respectively. we show that the oxygen permeability of the hybrid molten/so...

for button mushrooms packaging, the packaging films with high permeability to oxygen and carbon dioxide are required. permeability of plastic films such as pvc lead to loss of weight (and thus economic value) and textural changes are undesirable for button mushroom. so packaging film of polyolefins (pd 941 and pd 961) can be used. also the new film, hydrophilic materials such as films made from...

To apply the nanomaterial as a component in the packaging material structure, in this research, the carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) film were prepared with three levels of nanoclay particles (0.5, 1 and 3%) using solution casting evaporation method. The incorporation of nanoclay on mechanical, water vapor permeability, and oxygen barrier properties of CMC/PVA-based film wa...

The carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) film were prepared by adding three levels of nanoclay particles (0.5, 1 and 3%) using solution casting evaporation method. The incorporation of nanoclay on mechanical, water vapor permeability, and oxygen barrier properties of CMC/PVA-based film was investigated. The best result was obtained through the nanocomposite film contain 3% nano...

In this research, high oxygen-barrier films were organized based on low-density polyethylene (LDPE)/ ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH)/ polyethylene-grafted maleic anhydride (LDPE-g-MA) compatibilizer. The effects of 10–30 wt. % EVOH and 0–10 wt. % LDPE-g-MA loadings on the properties of final films were evaluated. The morphology of specimens was observed by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM)...
