Abstract:In this study, two fruit processing coproducts, pomegranate peel and dragon fruit peel, were mixed to fabricate a composite film that can be used in food packaging. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to prepare and evaluate a dragon fruit peel polysaccharide film incorporating pomegranate peel polyphenols. The films were evaluated for their morphology, mechanical properties, crystallinity, solubility, UV resistance, oxidation resistance, and bacteriostatic properties. Different concentrations (0, 0.3, 0.… Show more
