Slot coating flows of non‐colloidal particle suspensions
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2017-03)
Slot coating is used in the manufacturing of functional films, which rely on specific particle microstructure to achieve the desired performance. Final structure on the coated film is strongly dependent on the suspension ...
Novel sources of edible films and coatings
(Stewart Postharvest Solutions, 2010-09)
Purpose of the review: This work reviews novel sources of edible films, coatings and formulations, including combined materials and a lipid phase, and highlights the main results of the most recent investigations carried ...
Application of composite cassava starch/chitosan edible coating to extend the shelf life of black mulberries
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-01)
Black mulberry (Morus nigra) is a highly valuable commodity because of its nutritional properties and flavor. However, dehydration and microbial spoilage affect its quality during refrigerated storage. The objectives of ...
Combined use of physical treatments and edible coatings in fresh produce: moving beyond
(SPS, 2014-12)
Purpose of the review: In this review we describe the general principles and recent trends in edible coating of fresh produce. We also discuss some features that may link coating applications with common postharvest physical ...
Hybrid intumescent coatings for wood protection against fire action
(American Chemical Society, 2011-11)
Hybrid intumescent coatings for wood protection against fire were developed. Several resins were chosen as film-forming materials. Similar active and complementary pigments were used. To improve the efficiency, coatings ...
Quality preservation of walnut kernels using edible coatings
(Instituto de la Grasa, 2018-10)
The objective of this work was to evaluate the performance of various edible coatings for preserving the quality of walnut kernels (W) during storage. Three edible coatings based on carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), methyl ...
Nanostructured gold coating for prevention of biofilm development in medical devices
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2019-12)
Bacterial biofilms on medical devices (MDs) can cause deadly infections due to their resistance to antibiotics. Technology to prevent this kind of complication is urgently needed because they impact not only patients' lives ...
Preparation and characterization of cerium doped silica sol–gel coatings on glass and aluminum substrates
(Elsevier Science, 2004-11-30)
Chromates are among the most common substances used as corrosion inhibitors. However, these compounds are highly toxic, and an intense effort is being undertaken to replace them. Cerium compounds seem to fulfil the basic ...
Comparison of the deep frying process in coated and uncoated dough systems.
(Elsevier, 2008-02)
The effect of an edible methylcellulose coating to reduce oil uptake during frying was analyzed on a dough system. The oil uptake reduction was 30% for coated dough discs compared to uncoated ones; the coating neither ...
