Abstract

In this study, ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) and low density polyethylene (LDPE) composite films (EVA/LDPE-OSP) containing calcined oyster shell powder (OSP) were prepared using twin-screw extruder as an antimicrobial packaging material. The OSP composite was initially prepared and then incorporated into an EVA/LDPE blend at different ratios (0, 1, 3 and 5%) to develop the EVA/LDPE-OSP composite films. The as-prepared EVA/LDPE-OSP composites films were evaluated using FT-IR, DSC, TGA, OTR, WVTR, SEM and UTM as well as antimicrobial activity was examined using JIS Z 2801:2000 standard. OPS endowed the antimicrobial potency to the composite films against Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram-negative (Escherichia coli) bacteria. In addition, the incorporation of OSP remarkably enhanced the thermal stability. OSP as a natural biocidal agent can be used as a multifunctional additive in packaging industry such as improving the thermomechanical properties and preventing the microbial contamination of packaged products.

본 연구에서는 EVA/LDPE 복합소재에 OSP의 함량비를 달리한 EVA/LDPE-OSP 복합 필름을 이축압출기로 제조하였다. 제조한 복합 필름의 액티브 포장 소재로의 적용가능성을 평가하기 위해 FT-IR, DSC, TGA, OTR, WVTR, SEM, UTM 및 항균성을 분석한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 도출하였다. EVA/LDPE-OSP 복합 필름 내 OSP 첨가는 열 안전성을 개선할 수 있었으며, OSP 함량이 높아질수록 항균성은 증가하였다. 그러나, OSP의 응집, EVA/LDPE 폴리머와 OSP 사이의 낮은 상호작용 등의 이유로 OSP의 첨가는 상대적으로 낮은 항균성과 기계적 물성, 차단특성의 저하를 확인할 수 있었다. 결론적으로 EVA/LDPE-OSP 복합 필름은 미생물에 의해 발생할 수 있는 식품의 부패를 방지하는 측면에서 긍정적인 효과를 가져올 수 있지만, 포장재로써 적용을 위해 무기입자인 OSP의 입자크기 조절, 표면처리, 상용화제 도입 등을 통한 분산성을 향상시키는 것이 필요하며 이를 통한 항균성 증진 및 필름의 물성 개선에 관한 추가 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.
