Abstract

This research aimed to prepare tomato peel waste-corn starch films by using casting method with tomato peel waste as the raw material, corn starch and glycerol as additives. The effects of tomato peel waste content, corn starch content and glycerol content on the properties of tomato peel waste-corn starch films were explored. The results showed that with the increase of tomato peel waste content, the tensile strength and the oxygen permeability of the tomato peel waste-corn starch films were increased, but the breaking elongation and solubility in water of the films were decreased; the peroxide value of the oil packaged by tomato peel waste-corn starch films was decreased and the oxidation resistance of the oil was improved. With the increase of corn starch content, the tensile strength of the tomato peel waste-corn starch films increased, but the breaking elongation and solubility in water of the films were decreased; the oxygen permeability of the films was decreased first and then increased, but there were no big changes in the peroxide value of the oil packaged by tomato peel waste-corn starch films. With the increase of glycerol content, the tensile strength of the tomato peel waste-corn starch films was decreased, but the breaking elongation, solubility in water and the oxygen permeability of the films were increased and while there were no obvious changes in the peroxide value of the oil packaged by tomato peel waste-corn starch films. The proper preparation conditions of tomato peel waste-corn starch films were tomato peel waste content of 2.5%~3%, corn starch content of 3%~4% and glycerol content of 1.5%~2%.
