ABSTRACT
Fruit is prone to rot and deterioration due to oxidative browning and microbial infection during storage, which can cause serious economic losses and food safety problems. It is urgent to develop a multifunctional composite coating to extend the shelf life of fruits. In this work, multifunctional quaternized chitosan nanoparticles (QCs/TA NPs) with excellent antibacterial and antioxidant properties were prepared based on electrostatic interaction using tannic acid instead of conventional cross-linking agents. Meanwhile, konjac glucomannan (KGM) with high viscosity, edible and biodegradable properties was used as a dispersant to disperse and stabilize the nanoparticles, and as a film-forming agent to form a multifunctional composite coating. The composite coating exhibited excellent oxygen and water vapor barrier properties, antioxidant, antibacterial, mechanical properties, hydrophobicity, and UV shielding properties. Surprisingly, the oxygen permeability of the K-NPs-15 composite film was as low as 1.93 × 10-13 (cm3·cm)/(cm2·s·Pa). The banana spray preservation experiments proved that the K-NPs-15 composite coating could effectively prolong the shelf life of bananas. Therefore, this study provides a new idea for designing multifunctional freshness preservation coatings, which has a broad application prospect.
