Chitosan coating surface properties as affected by plasticizer, surfactant and polymer concentrations in relation to the surface properties of tomato and carrot
The objectives of this work were to determine the effects of the concentrations of glycerol and sorbitol (as hydrophilic plasticizers), Tween 80 (as surfactant) and chitosan on the wettability of Cuban chitosan-based edible coatings in view of their application on tomato and carrot and to develop a...
