Petroleumderived packaging are neither renewable nor biodegradable. Based on it, recent studies have been focused in biopolymer-based packaging, such as in polysaccharides (e.g., pectin and chitosan), due to their good renewable and biodegradable characteristics. However, their physical-chemical properties (mechanical, thermal, and barrier) are urged to be improved. The addition of nanoparticles (NPS) as reinforcing agents has been shown as a feasible means of improving such properties. The goal of this work was the development of pectin (PEC) (low and high methoxyl degree, MD)-based nanocomposite films incorporated with chitosan (CS) and poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) nanoparticles (CSNP and PCLNP, respectively). CSNP were obtained by ...
