The high tin-doped SiO2 films prepared by CVD will bring some crystals, but sol gel can control the accurate chemical component of the films. So it can produce high tin-doped materials. In the present paper, the tin-doped SiO2 films were prepared by a sol gel dip-coating process on glass substrates at concentrations of 66 mol% and 75 mol%. Then dipping was performed several times to enhance the thickness of the films. The transmittance spectrum was obtained by spectrophotometer. Compared with the films prepared in a thin film on a thick substrate previously, the model here has been modified to describe the transmittance of a thick film (substrate) sandwiched between two thin films (coating method). The authors used the curves method to calculate the film's parameters. The result showed that uhe refractive index of different samples was increased with the wave-length. And the film thickness was about 900 nm.

This study investigates the enhancement of gelatin (GEL) films using hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) for edible film packaging applications. Although GEL is biocompatible and cost-effective, its limited mechanical strength presents significant challenges for practical applications. The findings indicate that CMC effectively increases tensile strength (TS), while HPMC improves elongation at break (EAB) and hydrophilicity.

In this paper, Gd-doped ZrO gate dielectric films and metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) capacitors structured as Al/ZrGdO /Si were prepared using an ultraviolet ozone (UVO)-assisted sol-gel method. The effects of heat treatment temperature on the microstructure, chemical bonding state, optical properties, surface morphology and electrical characteristics of the ZrGdO composite films and MOS capacitors were systematically investigated. The crystalline phase of the ZrGdO films appeared only at 600 °C, indicating that Gd doping effectively inhibits the crystallization of ZrO films.

Innovative packaging materials are essential for preserving food, serving as a substitute for petroleum-based options. In this study, biofilms consisting of pullulan and gellan gum which incorporates astaxanthin nanoemulsion were prepared to extend the shelf-life of strawberries. Hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents (DES) were used as solvents to extract natural astaxanthin from Haematococcus pluvialis.

Fe-loaded red radish anthocyanin (RRA) and zein composite nanoparticles (FZNPs) were firstly prepared to enhance the color and stability of RRA. The addition of Fe caused anthocyanin to form color chelates, enhancing its pH color sensitivity. The prepared FZNPs showed good stability and anthocyanin retention during long-term storage.

Biodegradable plastics are increasingly utilized in packaging, driven by green chemistry and environmental responsibility. Among them, poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) stands out due to its biodegradability and biocompatibility. However, its limited gas permeability and selectivity hinder its application in produce preservation.
