Received: 3 June 2017; Accepted: 21 June 2017; Published: 28 June 2017 Abstract: The stability of many organic compounds is challenged by oxidation reactions with molecular oxygen from the air in accordance with thermodynamics. Whereas glass or metal containers may protect such products, these packaging types also offer severe disadvantages over plastics. Large-scale packaging, especially for food and beverage industries, has shifted towards polymeric materials with passive and active oxygen barrier technologies over the last decades. Even though patent literature is flooded with innovative barrier systems, the mechanisms behind them are rarely reported. In a world where packaging requirements regarding recyclability and safety are continuously getting stricter, accompanied by the appearance of emerging applications for plastic oxygen barriers (such as organic semi-conductors), research towards new materials seems inevitable. To this cause, proper in-depth knowledge of the existing solutions is a prerequisite. This review therefore attempts to go deep into the problems at hand and explain the chemistry behind the existing solution strategies and finally discusses perspectives suggesting new applications such as organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) and solar cells.

  • 4 Active Packaging in Polymer Films M.L
    4 Active packaging in polymer films M.L. ROONEY 4.1 Introduction Polymers constitute either all or part of most primary packages for foods and beverages and a great deal of research has been devoted to the introduction of active packaging processes into plastics. Plastics are thermoplastic polymers containing additional components such as antioxidants and processing aids. Most forms of active packaging involve an intimate interaction between the food and its package so it is the layer closest to the food that is often chosen to be active. Thus polymer films potentially constitute the position of choice for incorporation of ingredients that are active chemically or physically. These polymer films might be used as closure wads, lacquers or enamels in cans and as the waterproof layer in liquid cartonboard, or as packages in their own right. The commercial development of active packaging plastics has not occurred evenly across the range of possible applications. Physical processes such as microwave heating by use of susceptor films and the generation of an equilibrium modified atmosphere (EMA) by modification of plastics films have been available for several years. Research continues to be popular in both these areas. Chemical processes such as oxygen scavenging have been adopted more rapidly in sachet form rather than in plastics. Oxygen scavenging sachets were introduced to the Japanese market in 1978 (Abe and Kondoh, 1989) whereas the first oxygen-scavenging beer bottle closures were used in 1989 (see Chapter 8). The development of plastics active packaging systems has been more closely tied to the requirements of particular food types or food processes than has sachet development.

    Kristin Johansson | Oxygen-reducing enzymes in coatings and films for active packaging | | Oxygen-reducing enzymes in coatings and films for active packaging Kristin Johansson Oxygen-reducing enzymes in coatings and films for active packaging Oxygen-reducing enzymes This work focused on investigating the possibility to produce oxygen-scavenging packaging materials based on oxygen-reducing enzymes. The enzymes were incorporated into a dispersion coating formulation applied onto a food- in coatings and films for packaging board using conventional laboratory coating techniques. The oxygen- reducing enzymes investigated included a glucose oxidase, an oxalate oxidase active packaging and three laccases originating from different organisms. All of the enzymes were successfully incorporated into a coating layer and could be reactivated after drying. For at least two of the enzymes, re-activation after drying was possible not only Kristin Johansson by using liquid water but also by using water vapour. Re-activation of the glucose oxidase and a laccase required relative humidities of greater than 75% and greater than 92%, respectively. Catalytic reduction of oxygen gas by glucose oxidase was promoted by creating 2013:38 an open structure through addition of clay to the coating formulation at a level above the critical pigment volume concentration. For laccase-catalysed reduction of oxygen gas, it was possible to use lignin derivatives as substrates for the enzymatic reaction. At 7°C all three laccases retained more than 20% of the activity they

Sablani1 Received: 8 April 2019 /Accepted: 5 July 2019 # Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Ready-to-eat macaroni and cheese filled in novel oxygen scavenger and metal oxide–coated high-barrier polymer packages were processed in pilot scale 915-MHz microwave-assisted thermal sterilization system (MATS). Also, aluminum foil packages were processed in Allpax retort system to compare packaging performance. Physicochemical and sensory attributes of macaroni and cheese packaged in different oxygen and water vapor transmission rates were evaluated and stored for 6 months at 37.8 °C. Findings showed oxygen transmission rate (OTR) increase by 2–7 times and water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) increase by 2.5–24 times after MATS processing. OTR of polymeric packaging had no significant effect on vitamin A and vitamin E, shear force, and food color. Comparable results between polymeric and aluminum foil packaging were observed throughout the shelf life. This indicates that oxygen scavenger and high-barrier packaging with OTRs ~ 0.03–0.34 cc/m2 day and WVTRs ~ 0.62– 7.19 g/m2 day can be used for ready-to-eat meals with extended shelf life for soldiers and astronauts.

    Hanwell Anoxibug ®: Testing a Static Reduced Oxygen Environment System for Treatment at the Bodleian Library Kristie Short-Traxler* ACR, Head of Preventive Conservation, Oxford University Library Services, Bodleian Library, Broad Street, Oxford, OX1 3BG, +44(0)1865287117 [email protected] Alexandra Walker, Preventive Conservator, Oxford University Library Services, Bodleian Library, Broad Street, Oxford, OX1 3BG, +44(0)1865287117 [email protected] *author for correspondence ABSTRACT Some library and archive collections in the Bodleian Library, due to their composition, conservation history or fragility present a problem in terms of available insect infestation treatment methods. In addition to preservation requirements, reduced resources require methods that are easily affordable and sustainable by various library staff with little or no training in laboratory procedures. The use of Anoxibug® a new commercial oxygen absorber from the IMC Group Ltd’s Hanwell range is discussed. The initial trial investigates the effectiveness of the system in killing larval and nymph stages of the insects as well as maintaining suitable environmental control inside the bag. We also discuss the practicality of the set-up and maintenance of the system during the treatment. Finally, the paper will look at how the initial tests are shaping future anoxia control strategies for the Bodleian Libraries. KEYWORDS: library, pest, anoxia, scavenger INTRODUCTION The Bodleian Libraries have been dealing with library and archive pests for over 400 years. During this time, the Libraries have used a relatively small variety of methods for mitigation. To summarise, housekeeping and basic cleaning gave way to various chemicals and fumigation methods until the 1990s when freezing was introduced.

Akisanyaa*, W.F. Deansa and D. E. Macpheeb aSchool of Engineering, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen AB24 3UE, U.K. bDepartment of Chemistry, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen AB24 3FX, U.K. ABSTRACT The effectiveness of ammonium bisulphite (ABS) as oxygen scavenger and the behaviour of H2S in brine/ABS solutions are examined. Deionised water, 1 wt% NaCl and 3.5 wt% NaCl with different ABS concentrations are bubbled with H2S gas, while the dissolved oxygen, sulphide, EH and pH are measured. With the exception of natural seawater, ABS concentration much greater than 100 ppmw is needed to completely scavenge dissolved oxygen in all the solutions considered. The reaction between ABS and H2S leads to increase in sulphide. The implications of the results for environment assisted cracking of oil and gas production tubings are discussed. Keywords: A. Acid solutions B. Electrochemical calculation C. Acid corrosion, Pourbaix diagram, sulphidation, sulphide cracking 1.

Dissolved Oxygen (DO) is a measure of the amount of oxygen, usually thought of as a gas, that is dissolved in The most economical DO removal can be achieved by a liquid such as water. Oxygen is essential to life and is continuously measuring deaerator ppb DO results and also the most common element found taking part in fine tuning deaerator operation for lowest possible ppb corrosion reactions. DO can be thought of as the fuel DO reading before adding the more costly chemical needed for the corrosion process to proceed. It is the scavengers. In addition, even with chemical oxygen corrosion reactions that necessitate trace (boiler) DO scavengers present, DO ppb levels should be measured analyzers; such as IC Controls 865-25 or 869-22 at potential air in-leakage points to prevent localized portable that are designed to measure down to part per high DO and corrosion. billion (ppb or µg/L) levels.
