Abstract:Biodegradable
gelatin (G) food packaging films are in increasing
demand as the substitution of petroleum-based preservative materials.
However, G packaging films universally suffer from weak hydrophobicity
in practical applications. Constructing a hydrophobic micro/nanocoating
with low surface energy is an effective countermeasure. However, the
poor compatibility with the hydrophilic G substrate often leads to
the weak interfacial adhesion and poor durability of the hydrophobic
coating. To overcome this obstac… Show more
