We aimed to prepare a new pH-sensing film based on the immobilization of purple cabbage anthocyanins (PCA) into Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) reinforced by cellulose nanocrystals (CNC). FT-IR, XRD and TGA were used to assess the intermolecular interactions and thermo-stability of films. The addition of CNC and PCA resulted in an enhancement in UV-vis barrier, mechanical properties and moisture resistance. Inclusion of PCA imparted intelligent properties to the films. PCA-loaded films displayed strong visually detectable colorimetric responses to pH (2-13) and volatile ammonia. When applied to monitor shrimp freshness at 4 °C, PVA/CNC films containing 0.6 % PCA exhibited conspicuous color fluctuations from purple to gray blue upon deterioration. As a result, PVA/CNC-PCA colorimetric films were considered as intelligent packaging labels with significant mechanical, water vapor barrier properties and pH-sensing qualities for visual quality evaluation of fresh seafood products.
本研究旨在制备一种新型 pH 感应膜,方法是将紫甘蓝花色苷(PCA)固定在由纤维素纳米晶体(CNC)增强的聚乙烯醇(PVA)中。采用傅里叶变换红外光谱(FT-IR)、X 射线衍射(XRD)和热重分析(TGA)评估了薄膜的分子间相互作用和热稳定性。添加 CNC 和 PCA 提高了薄膜的紫外可见光阻隔性、机械性能和耐湿性。PCA 的加入赋予了薄膜智能特性。负载 PCA 的薄膜对 pH(2-13)和挥发性氨具有强烈的视觉可检测比色响应。当应用于监测 4°C 下虾的新鲜度时,含有 0.6%PCA 的 PVA/CNC 薄膜在变质时会从紫色到蓝灰色发生明显的颜色波动。因此,PVA/CNC-PCA 比色薄膜被认为是智能包装标签,具有显著的机械、水蒸气阻隔性能和 pH 感应特性,可用于新鲜海鲜产品的视觉质量评估。
