Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of food packaging materials, in particular to a food oxygen-absorbing packaging double-layer film and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] During storage, oxygen can cause oxidation of components such as fatty acids, proteins, and vitamins, leading to food spoilage, nutrient loss, darkening of color, and deterioration of odor. At the same time, oxygen conditions are suitable for the growth and reproduction of various microorganisms (such as molds and yeasts), which can easily accelerate food spoilage. In order to extend the shelf life of food, oxygen-absorbing packaging technology is widely used, such as oxygen absorber sachets and modified atmosphere packaging. However, oxygen absorber sachets have the risks of increasing production line processes, being unable to be heated by microwaves, being mistaken for food, and leaking; and modified atmosphere packaging has a relatively short shelf life due to the influence of the barrier properties of the packaging material.

[0003] Active packaging is an emerging technology that integrates oxygen absorbers into packaging materials, enabling the materials themselves to have oxygen-absorbing functions, and has good application prospects in the field of food packaging. For example, Chinese Patent Application CN114196048A discloses a preparation method for an oxygen-absorbing bottle cap gasket, in which an oxygen absorber is added to a plastic matrix through melt blending, extrusion granulation, film casting of the granules, and tabletting to obtain an oxygen-absorbing bottle cap gasket. However, food packaging generally uses natural organic oxygen absorbers that are safer, and the high-temperature conditions of melt processing can easily cause the inactivation of natural organic oxygen absorbers, resulting in poor oxygen-absorbing performance of the product.

[0004] Chinese Patent Application CN103407259A discloses an oxygen-absorbing functional soft packaging material based on natural gallic acid, which includes four functional structure layers: an outer oxygen barrier layer, an oxygen-absorbing layer that is also an adhesive layer, an activation layer that is also a catalytic layer, and a food contact layer; the food contact layer is the innermost layer and is also an oxygen permeation layer; the packaging material is obtained by using a dry composite process, in which an EVA water-based emulsion containing sodium carbonate is first coated on the surface of the food contact layer to prepare a pre-coated film, then a polyurethane or polyacrylate adhesive containing gallic acid is coated on the oxygen barrier layer film, and the pre-coated film is then compounded; the prepared packaging material has good oxygen-absorbing and carbon dioxide-releasing performance. This scheme disperses gallic acid in a polyurethane or polyacrylate adhesive as an adhesive layer and is compounded with other film layers, but the use of adhesives has the potential risk of residual migration of organic additives; and its complex four-layer structure also increases the complexity and cost of the production process; in addition, it uses traditional petroleum-based polymers (such as polyethylene and polypropylene) as the base material, which cannot be reused and is difficult to degrade, causing environmental problems such as "white pollution" after use, which is not consistent with the current trend of green and environmentally friendly packaging Chitosan materials have been widely studied in the field of food packaging due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, antibacterial properties, and film-forming properties. However, the current chitosan materials generally have poor mechanical properties, which limits their application as food packaging materials.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of food packaging material that combines high oxygen absorption performance, excellent mechanical properties, and degradability to meet the comprehensive needs of food safety, environmental protection, and preservation effect. SUMMARY

[0020] Further, in the preparation method of the food oxygen-absorbing packaging double-layer film, the drying is drying to remove the solvent under the conditions of temperature 20-60℃ and humidity 10-60%.

[0021] Further, in the preparation method of the food oxygen-absorbing packaging double-layer film, the mass ratio of gallic acid to sodium carbonate is (2-3):1.

[0022] The application also provides a food oxygen-absorbing packaging double-layer film prepared by the preparation method of the food oxygen-absorbing packaging double-layer film.

Measure the thickness at three different positions with a screw micrometer, and select the film with uniform thickness and no obvious defects for mechanical property testing. Set the tensile speed to 30 mm / min, and record the relevant data when the film is pulled apart.

[0042] (1) Tensile strength During the tensile process, the material enters the strengthening stage after the yield stage, and the maximum force (F b ) borne by the sample when it is pulled apart, divided by the original cross-sectional area (S0) of the sample, is called the tensile strength or strength limit (R m ), with units of N / mm 2 or MPa. The tensile strength calculation formula is derived as follows: ; In the formula R m Tensile strength is expressed in MPa. F b This indicates the maximum tensile force required when the film breaks or fails, and is measured in N. b represents the film width, in mm; d represents the film thickness, in mm.

[0043] (2) Elongation at break In any material, stress and deformation always coexist and develop simultaneously. Under tensile force, a material generally elongates. The elongation at which a fiber breaks is called the elongation at break, denoted by e, and expressed as a percentage (%). The elongation at break represents the elongation deformation capacity of a film under maximum load. Therefore, the formula for the elongation at break of a film is: ; In the formula, e represents the elongation at break of the film; L represents the maximum length of the film before it breaks, in mm; L0 represents the length of the film between the clamps before stretching, in mm.

[0044] Table 1: Performance test results of the examples and comparative examples

[0045] ; As can be seen from the above results, the double-layer oxygen-absorbing packaging film of the present invention exhibits strong oxygen absorption performance in the packaging, while also maintaining excellent mechanical properties (tensile strength ≥9MPa, elongation at break ≥110%).

[0046] The food packaging film prepared by the method in Comparative Example 1 showed poor oxygen absorption performance. The main reason for this was that the amount of gallic acid added was too low, resulting in a severe deficiency in the overall oxygen absorption capacity of the material, which fell far short of the standards required for practical applications.

[0047] The food packaging film prepared by the method in Comparative Example 2 showed poor oxygen absorption performance. The main reason for this is that gallic acid reacts with the chitosan substrate, causing the active components to be consumed prematurely, resulting in a significant deficiency in the effective oxygen absorption capacity after film formation.

[0048] The food packaging film prepared by the method of Comparative Example 3 and Comparative Example 4 has an initial oxygen absorption performance better than that of Example 1, but the oxygen absorption amount changes little after being placed for 2 days and 5 days due to the direct contact between the oxygen absorption main agent and the auxiliary agent, indicating that the active component is released in a short time and cannot achieve slow release. The main reason is that the active component (gallic acid and sodium carbonate) is directly contacted in water during preparation, and the interlayer diffusion regulation step is lacking, which causes the reaction to be triggered too early before film formation, which may lead to a shortened material shelf life.

[0049] The food packaging film prepared by the method of Comparative Example 5 has poor mechanical properties and cannot measure the tensile strength and elongation at break, and has little oxygen absorption performance. Analysis shows that the adhesion and wettability between the ethyl cellulose film layer and the modified chitosan film layer are weak, resulting in a serious lack of interlayer bonding strength, which easily causes interlayer separation, and the overall mechanical properties of the film product are significantly deteriorated; in addition, gallic acid is prone to agglomeration during processing due to poor compatibility with the ethyl cellulose matrix, which limits the amount of addition, resulting in uneven distribution and insufficient concentration of the active component in the film layer, which ultimately leads to the difficulty of the oxygen absorption performance of the film to meet the actual application standard.

[0050] The food packaging film prepared by the method of Comparative Example 6 has poor oxygen absorption performance and mechanical properties. The main reason is that gallic acid and sodium carbonate are directly blended and contacted during processing, and the reaction occurs too early in the high-temperature environment of extrusion and film blowing, consuming the active component and resulting in a significant lack of effective oxygen absorption capacity after film formation; in addition, the oxygen absorption system is unevenly dispersed in the film, forming obvious particles that destroy the continuity and uniformity of the film structure and form mechanical weak points, thereby weakening the overall mechanical properties of the film.

[0051] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto, any changes or replacements within the technical range disclosed by the present application can be easily thought of by those skilled in the art, which should be covered within the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
