The effect of plasticizers on the functional properties
Thus, addition of plasticizers into the film materials improves the functional properties of films by increasing their extensibility, dispensability, flexibility, elasticity, and rigidity. This study aims to review the current findings on how plasticizers impact the functional properties of biodegradable gelatin-based films.

The effect of plasticizers on the functional properties
However, it has been reported that the increased plasticiser concentration results in an increase in film thickness, moisture content and solubility, as well as a decrease in the density and water...
Effect of plasticizer and antimicrobial agents on functional
Similarly, the effect of plasticizer show impact on the mechanical properties such as rigidity and deformability of starch films but also behaviour depend on the type of plasticizer used [12]. Potassium sorbates (KS) and sorbic its categorized as GRAS additive and are more effective against yeast, many bacteria and molds.
Effect of Plasticizers on Properties, Retrogradation, and
The objective of this review is to provide a clear description of the importance of the effect of plasticizers on the properties of TPS obtained by extrusion, indicating the potential of some plasticizers to broaden the field of application of TPS.

- Do plasticizers affect the functional properties of biodegradable gelatin-based films?
- Thus, addition of plasticizers into the film materials improves the functional properties of films by increasing their extensibility, dispensability, flexibility, elasticity, and rigidity. This study aims to review the current findings on how plasticizers impact the functional properties of biodegradable gelatin-based films.
- Do plasticizers soften thermomechanical properties?
- The effect of the different single-component plasticizers (glycerol, propylene carbonate and ethylene carbonate) on the mechanical and dynamic thermomechanical properties of the films were studied. Moreover, the softening effect of the two-component plasticizer based on deep eutectic solvents (DESs) was addressed.
- Do hydroxyl groups in plasticizers affect the strength of films?
- According to Abdorreza et al. (2011), hydroxyl groups in the plasticizers could have influenced to the strength of the films. This is because the glycerol reduced hydrogen bonding between polymer chains by competing for polymer interactions.
- How do plasticizers affect biopolymers?
- In addition, plasticizers increase the distance and relative mobility between macromolecules, providing greater workability and processability to biopolymers, among other characteristics and properties . Regarding the effect of film radiation, two distinct behaviors were observed according to the applied dose.
- Does plasticizer concentration affect mechanical properties of gelatin-based composite films?
- The effect of plasticizer concentration on the mechanical properties of gelatin-based composite films is presented in Table 1. The TS of gelatin composite films decreased ( P < 0.05) when glycerol content increased from 0.2% (3.49 MPa) to 0.8% (2.11 MPa).
- How do plasticizers affect a polymer matrix?
- Plasticizers incorporation in the films may affect the continuity of the polymer matrix, leading to physical changes, where the films become more flexible and stretchable.
