Effect of Pullulan, Glycerol Blend on the Properties of Gelatin Based Edible Film

Abstract:

The effects of pullulan and glycerol on the tensile properties and optical properties of gelatin-based edible film were studied. It showed that the adding of pullulan dramatically improved the elongation at break of edible film, when the amount was 50%(percentage by weight, same followingly), the tensile strength and the luminousness reached the best. The adding of glycerol could both increase the elongation at break and optical properties of edible film, when the amount was 20%, the tensile strength reached the best.
