Study of Diffusion and Water Vapor Permeability in Chitosan Films and Chitosan Emulsified Films

Abstract:

Chitosan is an abundant, natural polysaccaride obtained from fishing industry waste and films of chitosan also provide an efficient oxygen barrier. However, they are a poor water vapor barrier, which can be improved by incorporation of a hydrophobic compound, forming a emulsified film. Chitosan films were produced with the addition of palmitic acid lipid analysis and then the process in parallel with the diffusive permeability to water vapor. The objective of this work was to characterize the diffusion and water vapor permeability behavior of chitosan films and chitosan emulsified films.
