Abstract

Preparation of antibacterial biopolymer film which is suitable for food packaging film was investigated using κ-carrageenan as a base material. κ-Carrageenan showed good biodegradability and film-forming characteristic but poor mechanical properties under humid condition. Also, various bacteria grew well on its surface. The poor mechanical properties could be improved by mixing with alginate at a 1:1 ratio and crosslinking with CaC1₂ solution. Antibacterial property could be provided by modifying the κ-carrageenan film surface with acrylic acid plasma followed by ion-exchange with Ag⁺ ions. Such prepared film still showed good biodegradability by various fungi.
