Polyethylene (PE) is the most used thermoplastic commodity as a consequence of its convenient cost-processing-performance relationship and it can be used in the form of films for food, goods and farming packaging. On the ...

Technological innovations in packaging are intended to prevent microbiological contaminations for ensuring food safety and preservation. In this context, researchers have investigated the antimicrobial effect of low-density ...

Candida antarctica lipase B was immobilized for the first time (at the author's knowledge) onto linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) films. Polymer films were previously bonded to a commercial aluminum sheet using a ...

A direct and fast post-processing method to modify polyethylene (PE) film surface is proposed in order to improve its paintability performance without changing its bulk properties. This goal is achieved by grafting styrene ...
