Black Rice Added Nanofiber Food Packaging Production and Marine Based Bioceramic Synthesis by Electrospinning Technique

Abstract

When the amount of free radicals in the living body is high, they damage the cells involved in the vascular structure, and also cause atherosclerosis and paralysis. The higher the amount of free radicals on the cell, the more serious the cells in the environment are damaged. The main task of antioxidants is to react with these free radicals to neutralize their activity, that is to terminate their functionality. With this study, bioceramic production from sea urchin shells and the production of polyurethane (PU) biocompatible and biodegradable nanofibers with high antioxidant content will be produced by electrospinning method and the materials to be used in the food packaging sector will be produced. Structural (X-Ray Diffractometer-XRD, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer-FTIR) and morphological (Scanning Electron Microscope-SEM) characterizations are provided for these nanofiber membranes. Within the scope of these features, it is aimed to be used in health, textile, agriculture, defense, filtration applications, especially in the food sector.
