Water-resistance chitosan film through enzymatic treatment and layer-by-layer assembly with bacterial cellulose for food packaging materials

Abstract

By interpreting bacterial cellulose (BC) through grafting chitosan with lauryl gallate (CT-LG), it exhibited exceptional hydrophobic properties while also employing a sustainable approach to chemical synthesis as a green packaging material.

A simple approach to produce hydrophobic biobased coatings using methylcellulose and organosolv lignin

“…[5][6][7][8][9] One prominent alternative to traditional plastics is biobased materials, which have gained popularity owing to their sustainable nature. [10][11][12][13][14][15][16] Sourced primarily from biomass, a rich source of biopolymers, these materials offer the potential to manufacture sustainable and biodegradable products, providing alternatives to conventional plastics. Lignocellulosic biomass is an excellent choice for producing biobased materials, whose main constituents are cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin.…”
