    Sorption and Diffusion of Water Vapour on Edible Films
    (Springer Verlag, 2008) Berkün, Didem; Balköse, Devrim; Tıhmınlıoğlu, Funda; Alsoy Altınkaya, Sacide
    Two types of films consisting of sodium salt of carboxymethyl cellulose (NaCMC) and hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC) as film forming materials and glycerin as plasticizer were prepared, characterized and their water vapour sorption properties were determined. The water sorption isotherms of the films were measured using a magnetic suspension balance. Results show that diffusion of water vapour in NaCMC based film is faster than that in HPC based films, due to the heterogeneous structure and larger pore dimensions of the NaCMC films.
