ACTIVE PACKAGING WITH CONTROLLED RELEASE OF TOCOPHEROL.

摘要

The invention relates to a flexible or rigid antioxidant active packaging material preferably intended for food or products susceptible to any type of oxidation, consisting of a system that promotes the migration of the active compound toward the packaged product during the storage or marketing thereof, instead of the addition of direct antioxidants, thereby extending the shelf life thereof. The material is formed by =89% base polymer, 2-10 wt.-% of an antioxidant tocopherol and 0.1-1 wt.-% of any surface modifier that has been FDA approved for use as a food-grade additive.
