“…Silveira et al [ 61 ] studied the development of active cassava starch incorporated with natural antimicrobial tea tree essential oil based on the physical, structural, and antimicrobial properties of the film. The antimicrobial activity of the tea tree oil at concentration of 0.08% was 77% to inhibit S. aureus while 65% to inhibit C. albicans.…”

“…The antimicrobial activity of the tea tree oil at concentration of 0.08% was 77% to inhibit S. aureus while 65% to inhibit C. albicans. The result showed biological growth inhibition needed higher oil concentration or the isolated action of tea tree oil [ 61 ]. Tea tree oil contains terpinen-4-ol and 1,8-cineole as the evidence to inhibit S. aureus [ 61 ].…”

“…Besides that, Silveira et al [ 61 ] reported the mechanical properties of the film at 1.5% of the tea tree oil (F3) was 3.03 ± 0.46 MPa for the tensile strength, while 25.1% ± 2.8% for elongation at break. From the Figure 3 it can be observed that the addition of 0.08% TTO (F1) increased the tensile strength (TS) while formulations with 1.5% TTO (F3) decrease the TS comparing to control films, for both levels of cellulose nanofiber (NFC).…”

“…A strong interaction between the oil and the NFC–starch matrix can produce chemical modifications, for example, crosslinking effect. Whereas, the increasing of essential oil caused the reduction of the cohesion forces of polymer chain, creating heterogeneous matrix and subsequently lowering the TS and increasing the elongation (E%) of the films [ 61 ].…”

Recently, many scientists and polymer engineers have been working on eco-friendly materials for starch-based food packaging purposes, which are based on biopolymers, due to the health and environmental issues caused by the non-biodegradable food packaging. However, to maintain food freshness and quality, it is necessary to choose the correct materials and packaging technologies. On the other hand, the starch-based film’s biggest flaws are high permeability to water vapor transfer and the ease of spoilage by bacteria and fungi. One of the several possibilities that are being extensively studied is the incorporation of essential oils (EOs) into the packaging material. The EOs used in food packaging films actively prevent inhibition of bacteria and fungi and have a positive effect on food storage. This work intended to present their mechanical and barrier properties, as well as the antimicrobial activity of anti-microbacterial agent reinforced starch composites for extending product shelf life. A better inhibition of zone of antimicrobial activity was observed with higher content of essential oil. Besides that, the mechanical properties of starch-based polymer was slightly decreased for tensile strength as the increasing of essential oil while elongation at break was increased. The increasing of essential oil would cause the reduction of the cohesion forces of polymer chain, creating heterogeneous matrix and subsequently lowering the tensile strength and increasing the elongation (E%) of the films. The present review demonstrated that the use of essential oil represents an interesting alternative for the production of active packaging and for the development of eco-friendly technologies.

Corn starch/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) composite films containing different concentrations of tea polyphenols (TP) were fabricated by casting. Scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy images showed that when the TP content was less than 8%, the films were relatively uniform, but with increasing TP concentration, the films became rougher and uneven. Fourier transform infrared, 13C nuclear magnetic resonance, and X‐ray diffraction techniques were used to investigate the interactions between TP, starch, and PVA. The incorporation of TP deepened the color and increased the opacity and solubility of the films. The tensile strength and elongation at break first increased and then decreased with increasing TP content. Furthermore, the addition of TP increased the antioxidant activity of the films, specifically, their ability to scavenge 2,2‐diphenyl‐1‐picrylhydrazyl and 2,2′‐azinobis (3‐ethylberizothiazoline‐6‐sulfonic acid). The addition of TP can effectively enhance the performance of starch composite films and their potential for application in antioxidant food packaging.

In this study, the use of Pinhão husk as a source of reinforcement material for development of edible films, where the Pinhão seed flour and bovine gelatin were used as matrices for the films. Mechanical properties, water vapor permeability, solubility and opacity, microstructure, and thermal degradation characterized the films produced. The films presented homogeneous and cohesive structures. Pinhão husk content positively affected film properties by increasing tensile strength (TS) and decreasing water vapor permeability (WVP), with Pinhão flour film formulations (5.0% Pinhão flour, 1.2% glycerol, and 0.4% Pinhão husk) and gelatin (5.0% gelatin, 2.0% glycerol, and 0.4% Pinhão husk) those that presented the best results (5.06 MPa for TS and 0.14 g.mm/kPa.h.m2 for WVP) and (3.88 MPa for TS and 0.28 g.mm/kPa.h.m2 for WVP), respectively The thermal degradation study revealed that the films are stable at temperatures below 150°C, losing only free water and volatile compounds of low molecular weight. Pinhão husk can reinforce films, making them suitable as biodegradable and edible packaging materials for eco‐friendly food products. This contributes to the circular economy, preserves biodiversity, and reduces plastic waste, offering promising sustainable packaging solutions.
