Proteins such as gelatin offer excellent film-forming ability but suffer from brittleness, while polysaccharides like xanthan gum contribute flexibility and stability across variable conditions. Microcrystalline cellulose, with its reinforcing effect, further improves water resistance and mechanical strength. Despite the potential of these complementary biopolymers, most studies focus on formulations prepared by casting, a process simple but difficult to scale up. Little is known about how industrially relevant methods such as extrusion affect the structure and functionality of gelatin, xanthan gum, cellulose composites. This study addresses this gap by comparing films produced by casting and extrusion using a polymer matrix of gelatin, xanthan gum, and varying cellulose concentrations (2.5, 5.0, and 10.0 %). Casting resulted in films with a tensile strength 200 % higher than extruded ones, while extrusion led to an 800 % increase in elongation and yielded hydrophobic films (contact angle &gt; 90°). All materials displayed amorphous structures and similar thermal stability, regardless of cellulose concentration. Overall, our findings demonstrate that the processing route is a decisive factor in defining the functionality of bio-based films. By showing how extrusion can be leveraged to tailor flexibility and surface properties, this work provides valuable insights for advancing scalable and high-performance alternatives to fossil-based plastics in sustainable food packaging.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":12377,"journal":{"name":"Food Packaging and Shelf Life","volume":"54 ","pages":"Article 101721"},"PeriodicalIF":10.6,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146171422","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Supercritical Fluid Extraction (SFE) with carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>) has emerged as a promising technology for being included as an efficient step of decontamination or postconsumer polyolefins, ensuring their safety and quality for food contact applications. This study evaluates the capability of SFE to decontaminate postconsumer polyolefin-based materials, including multilayer polyethylene (PE) and polyamide 6,6 (PA-6,6) plastic bags, high density polyethylene (HDPE) containers, and post-consumer HDPE packaging, all previously in contact with food. A non-targeted analytical approach was applied using headspace solid-phase microextraction gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS) and ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography coupled to a quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometer (UPLC-QTOF-MS) to detect and semi-quantify contaminants before and after SFE treatment and a total of 121 compounds were detected in this non-target analysis. Among them, several common plastic additives and various food-derivative compounds, degradation or oxidation products of these additives were found. The results demonstrated up to 99 % decontamination efficiency for volatile compounds and 75 % for non-volatiles, based on the total concentration of compounds before and after the SFE process. These efficiencies highlight the potential of SFE as a critical step for enhancing the quality of recycled polyolefins. The study underscores the role of SFE in advancing the recyclability of polyolefins within the framework of a circular economy. By addressing contamination challenges—both chemical and structural—and enabling the safe reuse of materials in food contact applications, this technology contributes to reducing plastic waste and promoting sustainable material management.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":12377,"journal":{"name":"Food Packaging and Shelf Life","volume":"53 ","pages":"Article 101682"},"PeriodicalIF":10.6,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145788873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
