“…On the other hand, the dispersion of different NPs through efibers has been studied with very promising results in different fields, such as food packaging [ 29 ], environmental, agricultural [ 30 ], and biomedical applications [ 31 ]. In particular, in the biomedical field, the main purpose is to produce scaffolds that guide the growth of cells and temporarily serve as a support for cell attachment and differentiation [ 10 ].…”

In the present work, a statistical study of the morphology and thermal behavior of poly(lactic acid) (PLA)/oligomer(lactic acid) (OLA)/magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgO), electrospun fibers (efibers) has been carried out. The addition of both, OLA and MgO, is expected to modify the final properties of the electrospun PLA-based nanocomposites for their potential use in biomedical applications. Looking for the compositional optimization of these materials, a Box–Wilson design of experiment was used, taking as dependent variables the average fiber diameter as the representative of the fiber morphologies, as well as the glass transition temperature (Tg) and the degree of crystallinity (Xc) as their thermal response. The results show <r2> values of 73.76% (diameter), 88.59% (Tg) and 75.61% (Xc) for each polynomial fit, indicating a good correlation between both OLA and MgO, along with the morphological as well as the thermal behavior of the PLA-based efibers in the experimental space scanned.

“…In recent years, electrospinning technology received much attention. Its production cost is low, is easy to install, is a widely available material, with high versatility such as diameter and microstructure (Rodríguez‐Sánchez et al., 2020). Although the electrospinning technique shows good potential for food packaging (Vasile, 2018), it produces low quantities of nanofibers.…”

Plastic pollution is a significant concern nowadays due to wastes generated from non-biodegradable and non-renewable synthetic materials. In particular, most plastic food packaging material ends up in landfills, creating mass wastes that clog the drainage system and pollute the ocean. Thus, studies on various biopolymers have been promoted to replace synthetic polymers in food packaging and consequently, the high number of research in biopolymers food packaging, especially in the characterization, properties and also the development of the biopolymer. For biopolymer-based food packaging, silk fibroin (SF) has been highlighted because of its biodegradability and low water vapor permeability properties. This review focuses on the different properties of SF films prepared through solution casting and electrospinning for food packaging. Discussions encompassed chemical properties, mechanical properties, permeability, and biodegradability. This review also discussed the studies that used SF as the biomaterial for food packaging.

“…It is a nonthermal encapsulation technique and could fabricate continuous natural polymer-based packaging systems with desired structures, morphology, and functional properties (C. Zhang et al, 2020). Many food-grade chemicals and solvents are utilized using electrohydrodynamic processing to fabricate nanoscale packaging systems, which is considered advantageous compared to traditional methods (Rodríguez-Sánchez et al, 2020). The mechanical and physical properties of natural polymers act as a limiting factor for particle or film generation, but through electrohydrodynamic processing, both properties can be improved (Ghosal et al, 2018;Y.…”

The active packaging materials fabricated using natural polymers is increasing in recent years. Electrohydrodynamic processing has drawn attention in active food packaging due to its potential in fabricating materials with advanced structural and functional properties. These materials have the significant capability in enhancing food's quality, safety, and shelf-life. Through electrospinning and electrospray, fibers and particles are encapsulated with bioactive compounds for active packaging applications. Understanding the principle behind electrohydrodynamics provides fundamentals in modulating the material's physicochemical properties based on the operating parameters.This review provides a deep understanding of electrospray and electrospinning, along with their advantages and recent innovations, from food packaging perspectives. The natural polymers suitable for developing active packaging films and coatings through electrohydrodynamics are intensely focused. The critical properties of the packaging system are discussed with characterization techniques. Furthermore, the limitations and prospects for natural polymers and electrohydrodynamic processing in active packaging are summarized.
