Physico-mechanical and structural properties of eggshell membrane gelatin- chitosan blend edible films

Abstract: This study investigated the physico-mechanical and structural properties of composite edible films based on eggshell membrane gelatin (G) and chitosan (Ch) (75G:25Ch, 50G:50Ch, 25G:75Ch). The results demonstrated that the addition of Ch increased elongation at break significantly (p<0.05), but resulted in no significant change in tensile strength (TS) using 75G:25Ch, 50G:50Ch mixtures in comparison with gelatin-based film. The water solubility and water vapor permeability of the 50G:50Ch film decreased signifi… Show more

“…This could be attributed to the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds between ammonium of the CS backbone and hydroxyl of the GL in the blend formulations (Leceta, Guerrero, Ibarburu, Dueñas, & De La Caba, 2013). Considering that TS is in correlation with the microstructure of the polymer matrix and intermolecular forces within the film components, the higher TS of the films might be due to the condensed structure of the CS-GL blend film (Mohammadi et al, 2017). Control and active bilayer films showed TS values (22.7 and 24.34 MPa, respectively) similar to CS film.…”

“…The most important role of edible films in food packaging is to prevent or reduce moisture loss (Krochta, Baldwin, & Nisperos-Carriedo, 1994). Water vapor permeability is influenced by different factors such as the nature and extraction method of the biopolymers, film thickness, moisture level, the ratio of the hydrophilic to hydrophobic portions, and the reaction between the functional groups of polymers (Garavand, Rouhi, Razavi, Cacciotti, & Mohammadi, 2017;Krochta et al, 1994;Mohammadi et al, 2018). The films' WVP is shown in Table 1.…”

“…Moreover, biopolymers can be eco-friendly, renewable, and abundant, and thus are desired resources for the design and production of biodegradable materials, being alternatives for petroleum-based materials [2,3]. Among the most popular biopolymers, gelatin, being the collagen hydrolysis fragment, has been increasingly used to develop materials with advantages such as proper optical and barrier performance [4,5]. Despite the desirable features of gelatin products, the inherent nature of pure gelatin materials, e.g., relatively low strength and elongation, can limit the applications of associated materials.…”
