Heat sealable regenerated cellulose films enabled by zein coating for sustainable food packaging
The development of green packaging materials is requested due to the growing concerns about plastic waste. As the most abundant natural polymer on earth, cellulose can be dissolved and regenerated to make transparent films. However, cellulose is not a thermoplastic, so cellulose films are usually se...
