Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of food freshness indication, and in particular relates to a method for producing a freshness intelligent indication functional paper with a stable structure and multifunctional characteristics (eg, high hydrophobicity, high dry and wet strength, freshness indication, etc.). Background Art

[0002] In recent years, with the continuous development of the economy and the improvement of people's quality of life, consumers have become more and more concerned about food safety. Food will be damaged by multiple factors such as microorganisms, enzymes, and temperature throughout the entire process from storage, transportation to sales, which will lead to a decrease in food freshness. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a convenient and real-time monitoring method for the quality and safety of food supply. Under the background of the "plastic ban" fully implemented in my country in 2020, more research content is focused on the preparation of smart packaging films to detect the freshness of food. However, research on the preparation of food packaging based on paper is particularly scarce. Natural cellulose paper-based materials are considered to be a possible alternative to traditional petroleum-derived plastics due to their excellent mechanical strength, low cost, biodegradability and environmental protection. They have broad application prospects in achieving sustainable development and green circular economy. Based on the above advantages, the preparation of freshness intelligent indicator food packaging based on cellulose paper has the advantages of packaging materials and plays a guiding role in the field of food safety.

[0003] Cellulose paper is a low-cost, mechanically flexible, printable and recyclable material widely used in publishing, electronics, construction and food packaging industries. The shortcomings of cellulose paper, such as single function and inability to perform intelligent detection of food freshness, limit the practical application of cellulose paper-based food packaging to a certain extent. Researchers often adopt the method of physically doping pH indicator factors (such as anthocyanins, curcumin, etc.) into the paper matrix to realize the multifunctionality of food paper packaging under conventional conditions. However, in the face of the special environment of low temperature and high humidity in which food is refrigerated, the porous structure and hydrophilic surface of cellulose paper make it show poor moisture resistance in a humid environment, and the mechanical properties are also greatly weakened. What's worse, anthocyanins will migrate to the surface of the paper base, causing it to fail, making it difficult for cellulose paper-based packaging to monitor the freshness of food in real time and for a long time in a high humidity environment. In summary, in practical applications, especially in low temperature and high humidity environments, food paper packaging often needs to have multiple functions of high hydrophobicity, high mechanical strength and sensitive indicator factors at the same time, so as to achieve the purpose of real-time and long-term monitoring of food freshness in special environments. At present, although some studies have reported methods to improve the mechanical strength and hydrophobic properties of paper, there are few reports on the direct addition of anthocyanins to paper to detect the freshness of food. This is mainly because in the traditional papermaking process, the paper needs to be hot-pressed at 105°C, and this high temperature will cause the anthocyanins to be inactivated. Therefore, the preparation of a food paper-based packaging that can detect the freshness of food in a long-term and real-time manner under low temperature and high humidity environment, with stable structure and good performance, has important application significance in the field of food safety.
