Abstract:

Chitosan (CS) was mixed uniformly with poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and gelatin (GEL) at different mass ratios, and the resulting solution was dumped onto a plexiglass plate by using a solution⁃casting method to obtain a series of CS/PVA/GEL blend films. The structure of the blend films was characterized by infrared spectrogram analysis, ultraviolet spectrum analysis, water contact angle, and so on. Their thermal stability, flame retardancy, oxygen permeability, preservation, mechanical properties were investigated. The results indicated that the blend films exhibited the best comprehensive performance at a CS/PVA/GEL mass ratio of 10/3/7.

Key words: barrier effect, flame retardant, film, chitosan
