Popis: The objective of this study was to develop a new hydrophobic film based on konjac glucomannan and kappa-carrageenan (KGM-KC) incorporating camellia oil (CO) (2, 4, and 6 %). CO was directly emulsified as a dispersed phase into KGM-KC matrix. The physical, structural, and water barrier properties of the film were studied. The results of Fourier transform infrared and scanning electron microscopy suggested that CO was successfully distributed in KGM-KC matrix by emulsification. Contact angle of the film indicated that addition of CO increased the hydrophobicity and water-resistance properties of film, which corresponding to the moisture content, total soluble mass, water vapor permeability, water vapor adsorption kinetics and water vapor adsorption isotherms. Addition of CO by emulsification improved thermal stability of film, optical properties, and mechanical properties. In conclusion, the incorporation of CO by emulsification is an effective and promising pathway to improve the properties of polysaccharide-based film.
