A study on the performance, structure, composition, and release behavior changes of polybutylene adipate terephthalic acid (PBAT) film during food contact

Polybutylene adipate terephthalic acid (PBAT) is an emerging biodegradable material in food packaging. However, concerns have been raised regarding the potential hazards it could pose to food safety. In this study, the changes of PBAT films during food contact and the release of small molecules were inestigated by a multiscale approach. On a macro-scale, the surface roughness of the films increased with the reduction in the concentration of food simulants and the increase in contact temperatures, especially after immersion in acidic food environments. On a micro-scale, the crystallinity (Xc) and degradation indexes (DI) of the films increased by 5.7–61.2% and 7.8–48.6%, respectively, which led to a decrease in thermal stability. On a scale approaching the molecular level, 2,4-di-tert-butylphenol (2,4-DTBP) was detected by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS) with the highest migration content, and the release behavior of 2,4-DTBP was further investigated by migration kinetics. In addition, terephthalic acid (TPA), a hydrolysis product of PBAT, was detected in acidic food environments by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The results of this study could provide practical guidance and assistance to promote sustainable development in the field of food packaging.

Lignin-enhanced wet strength and UV-Blocking properties of nanocellulose-based composite films obtained by casting/hot-pressing methods

We composited nanocellulose, lignin and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) by using borax as a cross-linking agent, and prepared nanocellulose-based composite films by two simple and convenient methods of the casting and hot-pressing. Results showed that the molding method affected the film properties. The hot-pressing composite film exhibited smoother surface and tighter structures, while the casting one exhibited better stretchability. The composite films showed a good tensile strength (casting: 149.56 MPa; hot-pressing: 179.68 MPa). Due to the addition of lignin, the composite films were endowed with good UV-blocking capabilities, wet strength, oxidation resistance and bacteriostatic properties. The composite film has good application prospects in the field of food packaging and UV-shielding.

Advancing soy protein isolate-ulvan film physicochemical properties and antioxidant activities through strategic high-pressure homogenization technique

Soy protein-based films often exhibit poor properties, including limited mechanical strength, stability, and bioactivity, which hinder their extensive application in the food industry, particularly in edible packaging. To enhance the properties of soy protein-based films, we employed high-pressure homogenization (HPH) to modify the soybean protein isolate (SPI) molecules and sought to cross-link SPI with ulvan polysaccharide, which possesses distinctive bioactivities. The results confirmed that soluble ulvan polysaccharides were incorporated into the cross-linking system through hydrogen bonding. Results indicated that HPH treatment enhanced SPI's solubility and surface hydrophobicity (H0), promoting hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions between SPI and ulvan, as evidenced by ζ-potential and turbidity measurements. Structural and microstructural analyses of both individual SPI and composite films, using FT-IR, XRD, CD and SEM, demonstrated a high compatibility between HPH-treated SPI and ulvan. The incorporation of ulvan reduced the films' tensile strength (TS), but higher pressure significantly improved it (p < 0.05). Post-HPH modification, the films exhibited increased contact angle and swelling capacity (p < 0.05), indicating enhanced hydrophobicity. Higher pressure treatments resulted in more opaque and yellowish films, thereby diminishing ultraviolet light transmission. Thermal stability analyses, via TGA-DSC, showed that U-HSPI films had improved thermal stability compared to pure SPI films. Moreover, ulvan inclusion boosted the antioxidant capacity of SPI films, especially after HPH treatment. Overall, this study confirms that HPH modification substantially influences the properties and activities of SPI-based films, and the complex films based on SPI and ulvan with improved physicochemical and antioxidant properties exhibit a great potential in the food packaging field.

Metal-polyphenol coordination nanosheets with synergistic peroxidase-like and photothermal properties for efficient antibacterial treatment

Bacterial infections pose a serious threat to human health and socioeconomics worldwide. In the post-antibiotic era, the development of novel antimicrobial agents remains a challenge. Polyphenols are natural compounds with a variety of biological activities such as intrinsic antimicrobial activity and antioxidant properties. Metal-polyphenol obtained by chelation of polyphenol ligands with metal ions not only possesses efficient antimicrobial activity but also excellent biocompatibility, which has great potential for application in biomedical and food packaging fields. Herein, we developed metal-polyphenol coordination nanosheets named copper oxidized tannic acid quinone (CuTAQ) possessing efficient antibacterial and anti-biofilm effects, which was synthesized by a facile one-pot method. The synthesis was achieved by chelation of partially oxidized tannic acid (TA) with Cu2+ under mild conditions, which supports low-cost and large-scale production. It was demonstrated that CuTAQ exhibited high antibacterial activity via disrupting the integrity of bacterial cell membranes, inducing oxidative stress, and interfering with metabolism. In addition, CuTAQ exhibits excellent peroxidase catalytic activity and photothermal conversion properties, which play a significant role in enhancing its bactericidal and biofilm scavenging abilities. This study provides insights for rational design of innovative metal-polyphenol nanomaterials with efficient antimicrobial properties.

Ultra-small gold nanoparticles embedded cyclodextrin metal-organic framework composite membrane to achieve antibacterial and humidity-responsive functions

Cyclodextrin metal-organic framework (CD-MOF) is an edible and porous material that can serve as a template for synthesizing small-sized metal nanoparticles. However, its highly hydrophilic nature has limited its wider application. Herein, ultra-small gold nanoparticles (U-AuNPs) were loaded into CD-MOF to produce a composite material Au@CD-MOF. The CD-MOF was utilized as a template to control the size of the AuNPs. The synthesized Au@CD-MOF was easily dispersible in aqueous medium and its released U-AuNPs exhibited effective water dispersion stability within 120 days. Additionally, compared to gold nanoparticles prepared using traditional methods (T-AuNPs), the U-AuNPs exhibited superior antibacterial properties. Furthermore, hydrophilic Au@CD-MOF was incorporated into a hydrophobic polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) matrix (Au@CD-MOF/PDMS) to achieve a humidity-responsive antibacterial function. The composite membrane exhibited remarkable responsiveness to humidity, showing almost no release of U-AuNPs at 0 % humidity. However, it exhibited approximately 89 % release within 1 h, and complete release of U-AuNPs was observed within 4 h under 100 % humidity. These findings highlight the successful preparation of a humidity-responsive antibacterial composite membrane, which has great potential applications in various scenarios, particularly in the field of antibacterial food packaging.

Ag-based solid solutions have gained significant attention in the electronic packaging field due to their remarkable plasticity. In this work, the generalized planar fault energy (GPFE), critical strength and stresses, and electronic properties after adding solutes with different types and size misfits were studied for Ag-based solid solutions. Furthermore, we explored the underlying mechanism behind the impact of solutes on the plasticity of Ag and confirmed it through transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high-resolution TEM (HRTEM) analyses. Importantly, we introduced the novel concepts of size and chemical misfit factors, electronic factors, and twinning factor into the plasticity enhancement mechanism of Ag-based solution systems. The predictions based on these factors were in agreement with experimental observations using TEM and HRTEM. Remarkably, the (Ag)–Bi system exhibited the lowest critical resolved shear stress for slip and twinning, as well as the most superior plasticity, positioning it as a crucial candidate for future development. This study presents a scientific framework for designing and developing Ag-based solid solutions with excellent plasticity, encompassing size/chemical factors, electronic factors, and twinning factor.

Starch and whey protein are potential biomaterials for the development of biodegradable and edible food packaging. In this study, chlorogenic acid (CGA), an eco-friendly natural extract, was firstly added to sweet whey/starch matrix as a bioactive compound to develop biodegradable active packaging materials. The results showed that when the ratio between starch and sweet whey was 10:1, water resistance and toughness of sweet whey/starch blend films were improved significantly. After the addition of CGA, the active films showed excellent UV barrier, antibacterial and antioxidant properties. When the addition of CGA reached 3%, UV barrier (at 315 nm), antibacterial (against Escherichia coli) and antioxidant (ABTS method) properties of the active films were increased by 54.6%, 47.5% and 74.5% compared with sweet whey/starch matrix.

Design and performance analysis of a piezoelectric jetting dispensing valve

In order to meet the requirements of high frequency, high precision, and micro-scale dispensing in the field of microelectronics packaging, a piezoelectric jetting dispensing valve based on two-stage displacement amplifying mechanism was proposed. First, the overall structure and working principle of the proposed piezoelectric jetting valve were described. The displacement amplifying mechanism was designed, and the mathematical relationship between the output displacement and the structural parameters was established. In addition, the performance and the structural size of the displacement amplifying mechanism were analyzed and optimized by using the finite element analysis software. The influences of driving pressure, glue viscosity, needle displacement, and other parameters on droplet diameter and jetting velocity in the process of dispensing were simulated and analyzed. In order to obtain the optimal nozzle structure, the changing curves of glue flowing velocity with different nozzle seal forms, nozzle cone angles, and outlet inner diameters were compared and analyzed. Finally, the prototype of the piezoelectric jetting dispensing valve was machined, and experimental study was performed. The influence laws of driving pressure, glue viscosity, driving voltage, and other parameters on the diameter of droplet were explored. The performance of the prototype was evaluated from three aspects of dispensing frequency, consistency, and minimum dispensing droplet diameter. Results show that the highest dispensing frequency is 230 Hz, the deviation of dispensing consistency is ±8.77%, and the minimum dispensing droplet diameter is 0.54 mm. The experimental results verify the high frequency, consistency, and micro-scale dispensing performance of the piezoelectric jetting dispensing valve based on the displacement amplifying mechanism, which provides a reference for the research of piezoelectric high-frequency jetting dispensing.

Effect of Different Concentrations of Co Doping on the Properties of η′‐Cu6Sn5 and Ni3Sn4: First‐Principles Study

In the field of electronic packaging, Ni3Sn4‐based and η′‐Cu6Sn5‐based compounds are common Sn‐based intermetallic compounds into which doping of other appropriate elements has been widely studied. Herein, the structural stability, mechanical properties, and electronic structures of (Ni,Co)3Sn4 and η′‐(Cu,Co)6Sn5 are systematically investigated using first‐principles calculations. By comparing the heat of formation of the doped and undoped intermetallic compounds, it is found that the doped Ni3Sn4 structure has a higher heat of formation and a less stable structure, while the doped η′‐Cu6Sn5 structure has a lower heat of formation and a more stable structure. The doped Ni3Sn4 exhibits an increasing bulk modulus (B) and Young's modulus (E), and the doped η′‐Cu6Sn5 exhibits a gradually increasing bulk modulus (B). These findings suggest that doping improves the rigidity and elastic deformation properties of the two intermetallic compounds. And yet the anisotropy of both intermetallic compounds is decreasing as doping concentration increases. According to the calculations of the electronic structures, the doped (Ni,Co)3Sn4 structure and the doped η′‐(Cu,Co)6Sn5 structure exhibit stronger metallicity. In addition, stronger Co–Sn ionic bonds are formed in the doped Ni3Sn4 and η′‐Cu6Sn5 structures. This suggests that the doped Ni3Sn4 and η′‐Cu6Sn5 structures are harder.

Improving structural and functional properties of starch-catechin-based green nanofiber mats for active food packaging by electrospinning and crosslinking techniques

The hydrophilic and low mechanical properties limited the application of starch-based films. In this work, a hydrophobic starch-based nanofiber mat was first successfully prepared from aqueous solution at room temperature by using electrospinning and glutaraldehyde (GTA) vapor phase crosslinking techniques for active packaging applications. Catechin (CAT) was immobilized in the nanofibers by electrospinning, resulting in higher thermal stability (Tdmax = 315.23 °C), antioxidant (DPPH scavenging activity = 94.31 ± 2.70 %) and antimicrobial (inhibition zone diameter = 15.6 ± 0.3 mm) of the fibers, which further demonstrated hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interaction between CAT and fibers. Nanofibers after GTA vapor phase crosslinking exhibited enhanced hydrophobicity (water contact angle: 15.6 ± 1.5° → 93.5 ± 2.3°) and mechanical properties (tensile strength: 1.82 ± 0.06 MPa → 7.64 ± 0.24 MPa, elastic modulus: 19.35 ± 0.63 MPa → 45.34 ± 0.51 MPa). The results demonstrated that preparation of starch-based electrospun nanofiber mats in aqueous system at room temperature overcame the challenges of organic solvent pollution and thermosensitive material encapsulation, while GTA vapor phase crosslinking technique improved the hydrophobicity and mechanical properties of nanofiber mats, which facilitated the application of starch-based materials in the field of packaging.

Heterogeneity characterization of commercial structural papers

Abstract Evaluation of physical and mechanical heterogeneity in commercial paperboards is needed to promote their use in structural applications, especially within the field of packaging. Understanding the range of their behaviors is needed to compete with other materials in the current marketplace and expand in others. This work describes the physical and stiffness heterogeneities of twelve commercial materials using tensile tests in the cross-machine direction and several inverse analyses. The effects of grammage, thickness, and apparent density on tensile stiffness were evaluated in both the linear elastic and nonlinear regimes. Thickness and density provided the best explanation for elastic heterogeneous behavior in most of the materials; local grammage was not the best descriptor for any material. The analyses used here were not able to provide a good explanation of the nonlinear behavior, which was attributed to the development of large shear strains within the materials as they neared failure. This work provides a methodology for additional heterogeneous behavior examinations.

The preparation and feasibility analysis of magnetic orientation method in the study of thermal insulation composite materials in the field of electronic packaging

AbstractAs an emerging field of current technological development, the heat dissipation performance of electronic packaging materials has become the key to determining product reliability. Therefore, the applied thermal interface materials (TIMs) need to simultaneously meet the performance indicators of thermal conductivity, mechanics, and insulation. Although BN had excellent in‐plane thermal conductivity and insulation performance, it is currently difficult to achieve vertical orientation of powder which leads the layered powder cannot complete a continuous and effective heat transfer path along the Z‐axis direction inside the composite material. In order to solve the above two problems, out‐of‐plane thermal conductive composite was prepared by introducing magnetic oriented method. In order to comprehensively evaluate the thermal conductivity, mechanical and electrical properties, BN@Fe3O4/EP magnetic oriented composites were compared with BN@PDA‐Al2O3/EP composite prepared by mechanical blending method. The vertical thermal conductivity of the magnetic oriented composite material was 2.24 W/(m·K) at 30 vol%, which was 3.39 times that of the blended composite material and 12.4 times that of pure EP. This proves that the magnetic oriented composite materials prepared by the research institute can meet the vertical heat transfer needs in the field of electronic packaging and have high research value in this area.Highlights BN@Fe3O4 core–shell particles were prepared with both thermal conductivity and magnetic controllability. The thermosetting composites were prepared by heated through preliminary gel point and then cured at high temperature. The orientation of powder inside the matrix was constructed, resulted in excellent out‐of‐plane heat transfer performance. Comparisons were made between various properties of magnetic oriented materials and conventional blend materials. The magnetic orientation method is feasible in the field of electronic packaging.

Multifunctional and antimicrobial carboxymethyl cellulose-based active hydrogel film for fruits packaging and preservation

Hydrogel-based film materials have been extensively used in the field of food packaging, whereas the water loss issue and relatively simple function of hydrogel films severely limited their practical application. Herein, we successfully prepared a sort of multi-functional sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/tannic acid (TA)/ginkgo biloba leaf extract (EGBL) hydrogel film (CPTE) and designed as active food preservation system. The water content of the resultant hydrogel film remains >97% when placed in air for one month after solvent displacement. Furthermore, the CPT0.1E1 hydrogel film possesses satisfied UV blocking, antioxidation (82.11%), oxygen barrier (7.91 cm3/(m2·24 h 0.1 MPa)) and controlled release performances. When applied as packaging film, the CPT0.1E1 hydrogel film could effectively prolong the shelf life of strawberry for 7 days. This work is expected to bring a novel strategy for establishing the next generation of hydrogel films-based fruits packaging and preservation with satisfied anti-dehydrating and multi-functional properties.

Evaluation of PET recyclability and characterization of modified reprocessed‐PET for industrial application

AbstractPolyethylene terephthalate (PET) is used in a variety of packaging applications, such as bottles, films, fibers, for its cost‐effective and excellent physical properties. However, the increase in plastic usage and packaging waste has become major global problems. Therefore, the importance of plastic recycling is being emphasized. In this study, the bottle‐grade PET was repeatedly melt processed up to three times to evaluate of PET recyclability. Intrinsic viscosity (IV) and mechanical properties have significantly decreased due to chain scission during the melt reprocessing. In particular, the IV of 3rP (reprocessing three times) decreased to 0.582 dL/g, and the mechanical properties decreased more than twice compared with 0rP. To enhance the physical properties of reprocessed PET (rP‐PET), it was modified using two chain extenders. The IV of the modified 3rP‐PET increased from 0.645 to 0.737 dL/g. And the tensile strength was improved up to approximately 93% of the 0rP properties, confirming the chain extension effect. Additionally, a biaxial orientation process was applied to confirm the feasibility of modified rP‐PET to various industrial packaging applications. Consequently, as the stretching ratio increased, the physical properties of modified rP‐PET improved, confirming the feasibility of rP‐PET in various packaging fields.
