Smart conducting polymer innovations for sustainable and safe food packaging technologies

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 23, Issue 6, November 2024.
Abstract Biofilm formation on food packaging surfaces is a major issue in the industry, as it leads to contamination, reduces shelf life, and poses risks to human health. To mitigate these effects, developing smart coatings that can actively sense and combat microbial growth has become a critical research focus.

Reactive compatibilization of harakeke fiber‐reinforced poly(lactic) acid/polybutylene succinate blend

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 141, Issue 40, October 20, 2024.
Processing of harakeke fibre, and production of its PLA/PBS composites through extrusion and injection moulding. Abstract Different blends of poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and polybutylene succinate (PBS), and their harakeke fiber‐reinforced composites were studied. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the PLA and PBS are incompatible and poorly miscible.
