DEVELOPMENT OF BIO-ACTIVE FOOD PACKAGING FILMS
Food packaging films was developed by melt blending polycaprolactone (PCL) with chitosan as carrier for grapefruit seed extract (GSE). The influence of molecular weight (MW) of chitosan on the blend was investigated. Lower MW chitosan accelerated the release of GSE that led to significant …

Biodegradable food packaging using agricultural wastes (Banana Pseudostem)
Biodegradable food packaging has been developed in this research from banana pseudostem. The research can be divided into three phases. The first phase was to explore the possible method to isolate nanocellulose from banana pseudostem as the main polymer for bioplastic formation. Alkaline …

Extrusion foaming of bioplastics for lightweight structure in food packaging
This thesis reports the systematic approaches to overcome the key drawbacks of the pure PHBV, namely low crystallisation rate, tensile strength, ductility, melt viscosity, thermal stability and high materials cost. The physical, mechanical, thermal, and rheological properties of the pure PHBV were …

Incorporation of natural antimicrobial agents into starch-based material for food packaging
… was studied in laboratory media and on a real foodstuff (Cheddar cheese). The AM films were prepared using two techniques: (i) direct incorporation of AM agents (carvacrol, linalool or thymol) into TPS films via a compression moulding technique; and (ii) by application of a coating containing …

Control of WIP and reduction of lead time in a food packaging company
… the competition of lead time are concerns of a food packaging manufacturer. In this work, causes of high WIP were identified and three approaches were developed to reduce and control better the WIP. We propose to split the production line into dedicated lines, to change the push production …
