Conductive material based on cellulose and polyaniline for active packaging applications

Abstract

In this research a conductive material was developed with the aim to obtain a smart packaging material that sensors the alteration of a food stuff product through the electrical changes caused in the developed material. To achieve this a formulation was obtained by combining the properties of nano complex gel base on cellulose and the conductive property of the oxidized aniline. The electrical impedance as answer variable allowed to determine the best process condition for obtaining the smart film.
