Abstract:

Because petroleum-based packaging films have raised increasing concerns associated with their non-degradability, there has been growing interest in developing sustainable and biodegradable films. This work addresses development of natural polysaccharide films with enhanced mechanical strength through synergistic interactions between calcium alginate and carrageenan. The maximal tensile strength was reached with a value of 19.1 MPa, which is comparable to conventional polyethylene films. At the meantime, the composite film demonstrated a matrix of properties suitable for general packaging application such as negligible solubility in water, high thermal stability and transparency. Scanning electron microscopic images revealed that the film had alginate arranged at the outside surface because the alginate is more hydrophilic than carrageenan. The overall structure of the film is a basic one-phase microstructure. IR spectra confirmed composite formation. These results demonstrate successful preparation of a sustainable and natural film as a biodegradable alternative to conventional polyethylene films for application in packaging. © 2017, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
