Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of fruit and vegetable preservation, and particularly relates to an ethylene adsorption coating slurry applied to fruit and vegetable preservation and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Ethylene is a plant hormone released by fruits and vegetables, and is related to the whole process of growth, ripening and germination of fruits and vegetables. The amount of ethylene released by fruits and vegetables themselves gradually increases with the extension of storage time. In addition to accelerating the ripening of fruits and vegetables, it also causes over-ripening and even rotting of fruits and vegetables, shortens the shelf life, and causes economic losses. Therefore, using ethylene synthesis inhibitors or scavengers to delay the ripening of fruits and vegetables is the key to postharvest preservation of fruits and vegetables. Ethylene absorbers are one of the methods commonly used to reduce or eliminate ethylene at present. Ethylene absorbers can be divided into physical adsorbents and chemical reaction agents. The physical adsorbents mainly include activated carbon, mineral powder, molecular sieve and synthetic resin with fine porous structure. This kind of adsorbent has no selectivity to ethylene, has fast adsorption rate, is less affected by temperature, but is easy to reach saturation, and the adsorption of physical adsorbent to ethylene molecules only relies on intermolecular force, which is weak adsorption and easy to desorb. The chemical reaction agent commonly used is potassium permanganate loaded on activated carbon, alumina, molecular sieve and other carriers. It is often used in the form of bags in commerce, and preserves fruits and vegetables by oxidizing ethylene. However, the carrier of potassium permanganate is mostly in the form of particles or powder, which is easy to adhere to fruits and vegetables. If it is packed in bags, it will affect the diffusion rate of gas and reduce the ethylene elimination efficiency. Moreover, the action area of solid preservative is limited, which is only suitable for small-bag or box-packaged high-quality fruit and vegetable preservation. If it is applied to the preservation of fruits and vegetables in foam boxes, paper boxes and other large packages, it cannot completely absorb harmful gases, so the preservation effect is not obvious. Chinese patent application file CN111778770A provides an inorganic coating gradient gas regulating fruit and vegetable preservation paper and a preparation method. The fruit and vegetable preservation paper is prepared by roller printing three layers of coating and spraying a phytic acid layer on the surface of the base paper, so that the storage environment of fruits and vegetables is always in a relatively constant humidity environment, and the ratio of oxygen and carbon dioxide is balanced, while ethylene is discharged, slowing down the cell respiration of fruits and vegetables, and achieving the purpose of preservation. However, the ethylene discharge efficiency is low, and the preservation effect is not obvious. At present, there are also studies on mixing porous materials such as zeolite and silicon oxide powder loaded with potassium permanganate with ink / adhesive to prepare preservation packaging such as corrugated paper boxes. Although this method increases the contact area with ethylene, the voids are blocked by the adhesive after the porous material is blended with the film-forming agent and adhesive, which greatly affects the adsorption performance. At the same time, there is a problem of large pollution in the production process. Therefore, how to provide an efficient and green ethylene elimination method is a technical problem to be solved by those skilled in the art. SUMMARY
[0003] The primary purpose of the present application is to provide a new ethylene adsorption coating slurry for fruit and vegetable preservation in view of the shortcomings and deficiencies of the existing fruit and vegetable preservation technology.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment, the film-forming agent is a cellulose nanofiber suspension, and the ethylene adsorption agent is a porous material loaded with potassium permanganate.
[0009] Cellulose nanofiber is a nanoscale particle composed of cellulose molecules, with a size usually between 1 and 100 nanometers. It is a nanoscale particle derived from natural plant cellulose such as wood, cotton, and rice husk, with excellent renewability, biocompatibility, and mechanical properties, as well as extremely high specific surface area. Since cellulose nanofiber is insoluble in water, after film formation, cellulose nanofiber interweaves together to form a three-dimensional network structure. Therefore, after mixing the porous material loaded with potassium permanganate with the cellulose nanofiber suspension, the voids on the surface of the porous material will not be blocked, effectively increasing the contact area between potassium permanganate and ethylene.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment, the cellulose nanofiber is one or more of TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofiber and quaternized cellulose nanofiber.

[0132] The ethylene adsorption coating slurry prepared in Comparative Example 5 included a suspension of carboxymethyl cellulose nanofiber and an ethylene adsorbent: zeolite powder loaded with potassium permanganate.
[0133] The preparation method of the ethylene adsorption coating slurry was as follows:
[0134] (1) 50g of zeolite powder was soaked in a saturated solution of potassium permanganate for 3h, filtered and dried at 60°C for 2h to obtain 54.6g of an ethylene adsorbent, and 50g of zeolite powder contained 4.6g of potassium permanganate;
[0135] (2) The purchased carboxymethyl cellulose nanofiber was diluted to a mass percentage concentration of 0.1%;
[0136] (3) 0.59g of the ethylene adsorbent was mixed with 49.41g of the suspension of carboxymethyl cellulose nanofiber, and stirred uniformly to obtain an ethylene adsorption coating slurry.
[0137] 25g of the slurry prepared in Comparative Example 5 was coated on the surface of A4 paper, dried and placed in a container filled with ethylene for adsorption. After 48h, the gas was taken with a syringe and the ethylene content before and after adsorption was analyzed using a gas chromatograph. The amount of ethylene removed by the coating of zeolite powder loaded with potassium permanganate / carboxymethyl cellulose nanofiber prepared in Comparative Example 5 was calculated to be 3.24ml / g.
[0138] Comparative Example 6
[0139] The ethylene adsorption coating slurry prepared in Comparative Example 6 included a suspension of hydroxyethyl cellulose nanofiber and an ethylene adsorbent: zeolite powder loaded with potassium permanganate.
[0140] The preparation method of the ethylene adsorption coating slurry was as follows:
[0141] (1) 50g of zeolite powder was soaked in a saturated solution of potassium permanganate for 3h, filtered and dried at 60°C for 2h to obtain 54.6g of an ethylene adsorbent, and 50g of zeolite powder contained 4.6g of potassium permanganate;
[0142] (2) The purchased hydroxyethyl cellulose nanofiber was diluted to a mass percentage concentration of 0.1%;
[0143] (3) 0.59 g ethylene absorbent was mixed with 49.41 g hydroxyethyl cellulose nanofiber suspension, stirred uniformly to obtain an ethylene adsorption coating slurry.
[0144] 25 g slurry prepared in Comparative Example 6 was coated on the surface of A4 paper, dried, and placed in a container filled with ethylene for adsorption. After 48 h, the gas was taken with a syringe, and the ethylene content before and after adsorption was analyzed using a gas chromatograph. It was calculated that the amount of ethylene removed by the zeolite powder / potassium permanganate-hydroxyethyl cellulose nanofiber coating prepared in Comparative Example 6 was 3.06 ml / g.
[0145] As can be seen from the above examples and comparative examples, zeolite powder, activated carbon, and sepiolite loaded with potassium permanganate as ethylene absorbent all have good effects on ethylene absorption, and zeolite powder is more preferred for better absorption effect. The soaking time of the porous material in the saturated potassium permanganate solution should be controlled within a reasonable range to control the loading amount of potassium permanganate in the porous material and ensure efficient absorption of the ethylene absorbent. The quaternary aminated cellulose nanofiber and / or TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofiber as a film former effectively increases the contact area between potassium permanganate and ethylene compared to corn starch and other types of cellulose nanofiber, thereby improving the absorption effect of ethylene.
[0146] As can be seen from Examples 1-3, zeolite powder, activated carbon, and sepiolite loaded with potassium permanganate as ethylene absorbent all have good effects on ethylene absorption, and zeolite powder is more preferred for better absorption effect. As can be seen from Examples 1, 4-7, when the loading amount of potassium permanganate in the porous material is too small, the ethylene adsorption effect is not good, and when the loading amount is too large, the ethylene adsorption amount is reduced. The loading amount of potassium permanganate in the porous material is controlled by the soaking time. As can be seen from the comparison of Example 1, Examples 8-9, when the cellulose nanofiber suspension is a composite suspension of quaternary aminated cellulose nanofiber and TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofiber, the coating has better ethylene adsorption efficiency. As can be seen from the comparison of Example 1, Comparative Examples 1-5, the quaternary aminated cellulose nanofiber and / or TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofiber as a film former effectively increases the contact area between potassium permanganate and ethylene compared to not adding a film former, corn starch, and other types of cellulose nanofiber, thereby improving the absorption effect of ethylene.
