摘要: Biodegradable chitosan/gelatin (CS/GEL) films have attracted attention as food packaging, but the poor water sensitivity and functional limitations of these films should be addressed. In this study, the hydrophobic deep eutectic solvent (DES, 0-15 %) consisting of thymol and octanoic acid was used to improve the water resistance and antibacterial performance of the CS/GEL composite films. FTIR and SEM analyses revealed a strong inter-action between the CS/GEL matrix and DES. The films blended with DES showed increased water contact angle values and thermal stability. Furthermore, the addition of DES resulted in a significant increase in the elasticity and decrease water vapor transmission rate (WVTR). The CS/GEL films blended with 9% DES showed a 38.5% decrease in WVTR compared to those without DES. Additionally, the DES-containing film displayed good anti-bacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Overall, the CS/GEL-DES composite films are expected to contribute an improvement to food packaging.
