Characteristic and Stability of Chitosan-Based Polymer for Fruit Coating in the Presence of Ginger Essential Oil: Effect of Acetic Acid Concentration
Chitosan-based polymer is ideal for coating fruits in post-harvest treatment to maintain their quality as they can create a film and is biocompatible. The mechanical strength of chitosan (CH) can be enhanced by forming ionic crosslinking between CH molecules through tripolyphosphate (TPP) and surfac...
