Food wrap formulation

Glycolube AFA-1 can be used at lower loadings than conventional anti-fogging/anti-static systems. Levels of 1.5-2.5 phr are recommended for effective fog resistance in flexible PVC food wrap formulations. Loadings as low as 1.5 phr are sufficient to meet NFPA code 99 specifications for static dissipation.

It is often advisable to use more than one type of light stabiliser in the same formulation, although they can interact. Most are expensive, but they are considered worthwhile in most plastics applications, except in transient products such as food wrap. 

PG has a variety of applications. In the food industry, it is used as a solvent, humectant, and preservative in the mannfactnre of products that come in contact with food such as plasticizers for food wraps, as a solvent for food processing, and as a lubricant for food machinery. Glycols can be the preferred solvent for the cleaning formulations. 

PVC compounds are formulated for specific applications with specific requirements thus certain additives are used in some applications and not in others. For example, plasticizers used in roofing membrane may not be acceptable for food wrap film. In some cases, additives are reviewed and approved for applications. US FDA and NSF International review and/ or approve resins and additives for food grade bottle and potable water pipe, respectively. 

Bioactive polymeric material can be used in applications other than formulations which are broadcast or applied to a target surface. Devices such as bands or food wrap prepared from biocide-impregnated polymers or can be used. These devices are often used on animals where a low, constant dose is useful which does not harm the animal. In these cases, much lower doses can be used than that found in sprays or dips because of their long term presence. 

Saturated fats tend to be solid, while unsaturated fats tend to be liquid. Think about this from the point of view of a food manufacturer of, say, chocolate bars. Your chocolate bars need to be formulated with fats to give them that delicious creamy flavor. If you choose saturated fats, your chocolates will take on more of a solid consistency, which allows you to wrap them so that they neatly display on the grocery store shelf. If you choose the healthier unsaturated fats, however, then your chocolate... 

PB film is usually made by the blown film process, but also can be cast oil drill lolls. Film applications include food and meat packaging, compression wraps, and hot-fill containers. The material can be formulated to provide a wide range of seal strengths for peelable or easy-opening packaging. 

The current study provides a new type of edible, antimicrobial food packaging or wrapping films from food-grade natural fibers or hydrocolloid. Besides film casting, the films can also be produced by compression, extrusion blown methods. The inclusion of PEO hydrocolloid in natural fiber formulations makes films tougher and caused less permanent deformation when the films were subjected to an external force. Since the extrusion and compression were performed in mild conditions, nisin can be incorporated into films without diminishing its antimicrobial activity. 

Polyvinylidene chloride (PVDC), a polymer formed from CH2=CCl2, is diiScult to formulate and is not used for any type of product by itself. It is usually manufactured as a copolymer with various monomers, including acrylonitrile, vinyl chloride, acrylic esters, or methacrylic esters. A unique property of PVDC copolymers is to prevent water and gases from diffusing through the film. In this way, PVDC copolymer films provide a vapor barrier, and are commonly used to wrap foods for storage. The commercial name Saran refers to both the PVDC homopolymer and its copolymers. Reference Spectrum 22 provides the IR and Raman spectra of a vinylidene...
