Polysaccharides as Edible Films and Coatings: Characteristics and Influence on Fruit and Vegetable Quality—A Review (2021, background): “Films (membranes) made of alginates are impermeable to fats and oils, and like other hydrophilic polysaccharides, they are distinguished by high water vapour permeability [37,39,57].”
Assessment of film‐forming potential and properties of protein and polysaccharide‐based biopolymer films (2007, background): “However, alginate films have been shown to become more water resistant when they were treated by immersing in higher than 2 g 100 mL CaCl2 solutions (Rhim, 2004).”
Biobased alginate/castor oil edible films for active food packaging (2018, unknown): “…EFs owing to their novel properties as gel and film formation (Azeredo, Miranda, Rosa, Nascimento, & de Moura, 2012; Maizura, Fazilah, Norziah, & Karim, 2007; Rhim, 2004; Riquelme, Herrera, & Matiacevich, 2017; Sipahi, Castell-Perez, Moreira, Gomes, & Castillo, 2013; Wang, Auty, & Kerry, 2010).”
Biodegradable polymer films from seaweed polysaccharides: A review on cellulose as a reinforcement material (2017, methodology): “It is composed of a monomeric unit of (1→4)-linked β-D-mannuronic acid (M) and α-L-guluronic acid (G) residues (Figure 1) and is commonly used as thickening, stabilizing, suspending, film-forming, gel-producing, and emulsion-stabilizing agents [19].”
Preparation and Characterization of Films Based on Alginate and Aloe Vera (2011, unknown): “[ 1-3 , 8 , 9 ] The interest in alginate concerns its unique colloidal properties, which include film forming, biocompatibility, biodegradability, emulsion stabilizing, and bioadhesiveness.”
Thermoplastic starches: Properties, challenges, and prospects (2013, background): “The permeability increases with increasing plasticizer concentration, and the increase in permeability is greater in hydrophilic compounds than in hydrophobic ones [108–112].”
