“…Results showed decrease in the hydrophilic nature of films, a fact that is explained by the interaction between components of EOs and hydroxyl groups of films, which cannot interact with water molecules and, consequently, generate films that are more resistant to water. 24,27 Jahed et al 10 also observed decrease in solubility in water of chitosan films when EOs from Carum copticum were incorporated into them. In a similar study, Ghasemlou et al 28 found decrease in solubility in water of corn starch films into which two types of EOs from Zataria multiflora and Mentha pulegium were incorporated.…”

“…8,9 Besides exhibiting biodegradability, mechanical and barrier properties, biopolymers may work as active packaging by transporting antimicrobial agents, antioxidants and nutritional compounds, such as vitamins. 10,11 Therefore, EOs have shown potential applicability to films and biopolymer coatings because they exhibit high antioxidant antimicrobial properties; most of them are generally recognized as safe (GRAS). 12 Fungi that belong to the genus Rhizopus sp.…”

Starch is a promising source of biopolymers and the incorporation of essential oils (EOs) into it can improve some biological properties of films. This study aimed at developing and characterizing barrier, biodegradability and optical properties of biopolymeric films made from arrowroot starch and at incorporating EOs from Piper aduncum leaves and inflorescences in order to analyze their antifungal activity against Rhizopus microsporus and Colletotrichum gloeosporioides. The casting method was used for developing arrowroot starch films and incorporating EOs into them. Resulting films exhibited satisfactory barrier properties, low water vapor permeability (WVP), transparency and good barrier property against UV-vis light, besides being 100% biodegradable. In addition, films enriched with EOs at 0.75% and 1.0% revealed promising antifungal activity. Results showed, for the first time, that arrowroot starch enriched with EOs from P. aduncum can potentially be used as an active film due to its excellent physicochemical properties and antimicrobial activity.

“…The use of these compounds to the formulation of edible films and coatings could lead to a decrease of EOs amount needed, while the effectiveness of such oils on film behavior remains constant (Yuan et al, ). In the last few years, there is a plethora of studies where EOs were incorporated in polymers or biopolymers (Atarés & Chiralt, ; Jahed, Khaledabad, Almasi, & Hasanzadeh, ; Khalili et al, ; Paparella et al, ; Pelissari, Grossmann, Yamashita, & Pineda, ; Persico, Ambrogi, Carfagna, & Ferrocino, ; Pola et al, ; Shojaee‐aliabadi et al, ; Sotelo‐Boyás, Correa‐Pacheco, Bautista‐Baños, & Corona‐Rangel, ). The main drawback of a direct EOs incorporation with polymer materials is that during polymer processing the EOs bloom to the surface of the polymer rapidly and they escape via evaporation.…”

The globally increasing needs for food quantity and quality led industries to invest in packaging methods that enhance the shelf life and quality of foods. Also, the effort to avoid the use of petrochemical or chemical derivatives in the production‐chain increased the exploitation of by‐products and biomass. In this work, the raw materials such as montmorillonite (Mt), the chitosan (CS) which is a sea‐food byproduct, and the natural essential oil extract thyme oil (TO) were combined via two different methods for the development of an advanced nanocomposite active packaging film for foods. In the first method, the so‐called “Solution‐Blending” (SB), a CS/TO solution was blended with sodium–montmorillonite (NaMt) or organomodified‐montmorillonite (OrgMt). In the second method, the so‐called “ModifiedClay” (MC), the TO was adsorbed into NaMt or OrgMt and the produced hybrid was added to CS. The tests indicated that nanocomposite films which were prepared via the MC method are promising materials for active packaging films. Practical applications Nowadays, a lot of effort is spent on finding advanced food conservation methods which extend shelf time, increase quality, and vanish the food odor problems. This study shows that films which are prepared via the modified clay method exhibit high antioxidant behavior and high antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli. Also, tests on under‐vacuum packaged chicken breast fillets exhibit low lipid oxidation values. Thus, these films/pads are promising for active packaging applications of meat and other food products.

“…In order to potentialize the innate characteristics of chitosan films, bioactive compounds like antimicrobial and antioxidants agents, gas scavengers, moisture absorbents and nutraceutical compounds, can be added. Due to the health concerns of the consumers, current research in active packaging has focused on developing natural preservative systems such as those based on nisin, lysozyme, essential oils, or fruit and plant extracts which exhibit antioxidant or antimicrobial properties which can be an alternative to those based on artificial additives and chemical preservatives [16,67,68]. However, the use of these natural compounds in food preservation is frequently limited because of their application costs and other disadvantages like their intense aroma and potential toxicity [69].…”

Chitosan Composites in Packaging Industry—Current Trends and Future Challenges

Chitosan-based composites play an important role in food packaging applications and can be used either as films or as edible coatings. Due to their high costs and lower performance (i.e., lower barrier against water vapor, thermal, and mechanical properties) when compared to the traditional petroleum-based plastics, the use of such biopolymers in large-scale is still limited. Several approaches of chitosan composites in the packaging industry are emerging to overcome some of the disadvantages of pristine polymers. Thus, this work intends to present the current trends and the future challenges towards production and application of chitosan composites in the food packaging industry.
