  1. Physical properties of kafirin films Enviropak final meeting Mats Stading Katarina Nilsson Susanna Edrud Siw Kidman Annika Altskär Paola Olofsson Maria Petersson SIK – The Swedish Institute for Food and Biotechnology Structure and Material Design Göteborg, Sweden

  2. Samples • Kafirin from CSIR large batch • Defatted zein from Sigma • Cast and thermoplastic films (from Sammy) • Plasticizer/protein: 0, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4

  3. Characterization • Fracture strength (E, sb, eb) • Thermomechanical properties, DMA (G*, Tg) • Barrier properties (WVP, OP) • Moisture content • Microstructure (LM, CLSM, TEM)

  4. Plasticizers tested

  5. Stress at break sb [MPa] Ethanol Acetic acid Plasticizer/kafirin

  6. Strain at break eb [MPa] Ethanol Acetic acid Plasticizer/kafirin

  7. Moisture content MC [% w/w] Ethanol Acetic acid Plasticizer/kafirin

  8. Glass transition temperature ofkafirin and zein films Glycerol/PEG/la 1:1:1 Zein PEG LA PEG Kafirin Thermoplastic zein films from IMBC

  9. Water Vapour PermeabilityComparison with other materials WVP [g mm/m²h kPa] Whey protein glycerol Amylose Amylopectin glycerol sorbitol EVOH LDPE 0.4 0.48 0.83 Plasticizer/kafirin

  10. LDPE 1900 UP kafirin preparation Whey protein glycerol Amylose Amylopectin glycerol EVOH sorbitol 0.4 0.3 0.83 Oxygen Permeability OP [cm³ mm/m² d kPa] Plasticizer/kafirin

  11. Ethylene Permeability

  12. Thermoplastic zein films 25% PEG400, 50rpm, 60°C, 600s Micropores 0.1mm Fine structures of zein films 1mm Processing temperatures (60°C, 70°C,80°C) do not seem to change themicrostructure of the thermoplastic films 1mm

  13. Thermoplastic kafirin films 60°C 80°C Observations Bigger micropores at higher processing temperature Less striated structure at higher processing temperature  more even melting No microstructural difference between lauric acid and PEG plasticization 20mm 20mm 1mm 1mm
