摘要

3-carotene, the most abundant carotenoid in nature and a natural antioxidant, has been added at a concentration of 2 × 10~(-4) g per mL of polymer film forming solution to three biopolyester matrices, poly(lactic acid) (PLA), polycaprolactone (PCL) and polyhydroxybutyrate-co-valerate (PHBV). The dispersion and stability of the antioxidant within the films was studied using confocal Raman imaging spectroscopy, colorimetry and UV/visible spectrophotometry. The films were characterized in terms of thermal and mechanical properties in comparison with control films without 3-carotene. Addition of β-carotene to the three biopolyesters studied resulted in significant increases in the deformation at break and lower Young modulus. This antioxidant is thought to act as a plasticizer in the biopolyesters, thus increasing their free volume and causing a change in their thermal properties. Moreover, when exposed to UV light the mechanical properties of the films with P-carotene were less affected displaying, in general, higher modulus and similar ultimate tensile strength while keeping the films more ductile than the pure films. Therefore, β-carotene can be potentially used as a natural additive to increase the UV stability of the biopolyesters.
