To develop a novel active packaging for fruit preservation, two different deep eutectic solvents (DESs) comprising choline chloride, betaine and glycerol [ChCl:Gly (1:2) and Be:Gly (1:2)] were prepared and the corresponding DESs-based films (DES@Gel) using gelatin as polymer matrix were fabricated. DES@Gel showed smoother morphologies and better optical and mechanical properties as compared with Gel. Moisture sorption isotherm curves, the enhancement of water vapour permeability (WVP) and the excellent moisture absorption-desorption cyclist performance illustrated the moisture regulation hypothesis mechanism of DES@Gel. Furthermore, cherry tomato preservation experiment was carried out and the groups treated with DES@Gel showed better performances. The moisture regulation property of DES@Gel could broaden new avenues for active packaging.
为开发一种用于水果保鲜的新型活性包装,我们制备了两种不同的包含胆碱氯化物、甜菜碱和甘油的深共晶溶剂(DES)[ChCl:Gly(1:2)和 Be:Gly(1:2)],并使用明胶作为聚合物基质制备了相应的 DES 基薄膜(DES@Gel)。与 Gel 相比,DES@Gel 表现出更光滑的形态、更好的光学和机械性能。水分吸附等温线曲线、水蒸气透过率(WVP)的提高以及出色的水分吸收-解吸循环性能说明了 DES@Gel 的水分调节假说机制。此外,我们还进行了樱桃番茄保鲜实验,结果表明用 DES@Gel 处理的樱桃番茄保鲜效果更好。DES@Gel 的水分调节性能为活性包装开辟了新的途径。
