Tunable Physicochemical and Bactericidal Activity of Multicarboxylic‐Acids‐Crosslinked Polyvinyl Alcohol Membrane for Food Packaging Applications

Abstract: The present study demonstrates the role of multicarboxylic acids as crosslinkers to polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) films were fabricated by solution casting method for food packing applications. Effect of incorporating different carboxylic acids namely oxalic acid (OA), succinic acid (SA) and citric acid (CA) on physicochemical and bioactive properties of PVA were investigated in detail. The crystalline phase, optical absorptions and the functional group were analyzed through X-Ray diffraction (XRD), UV-Vis and Fouri… Show more

“…PVA and PVA/OA polymer solutions and fabricated polymer films were tested against G + (S. aureus) and G − (E. coli) bacteria using a well diffusion method to determine their potential antibacterial activity (Suganthi et al 2018). Mueller-Hinton agar was prepared and inoculated with the test bacteria.…”

“…Birck et al (2014) proposed the use of a PVA film cross-linked with citric acid and cyclodextrin as a dynamic food packaging material. It is well reported in the literature that PVA or PVA-polymer blends can be cross-linked using multi-carboxylic acids such as oxalic, citric, malic, succinic, and tartaric acid to achieve improved thermomechanical stability for use in packaging applications (Park et al 2001;Gohil et al 2006;Olivato et al 2013;Suganthi et al 2018). While numerous techniques have been proposed for crosslinked PVA networks, few works have undertaken a comparative evaluation of appropriate cross-linkers for PVA films used for food packaging.…”

“…Slight changes are observed in the FE‐SEM images which give detailed observation at different days of culture on the composite coatings . Figure (a‐c) illustrates that round cells are observed on ceramic coating, whereas the cell cultured on TiO 2 ‐SiO 2 bio‐ceramic coating shows poor cell adhesion due to high pH …”

“…PVA is usually prepared by polymer-analogous saponification of poly(vinyl acetate) which has been polymerised by free radical polymerisation [7]. Nowadays, PVA is employed as an adhesive for packaging applications [8], a sizing agent for paper processing [9,10], a water-soluble glue and modelling material [8], an encapsulation agent, and a dispersing aid [11]. Due to its biocompatibility, this polymer is regarded as safe for coatings in contact with foodstuff and suitable for the preparation of hydrogels for biomedical applications [12,13].…”
