Abstract
The growing accumulation of plastic packaging waste poses severe environmental and health challenges. To address these issues, significant research has been devoted to developing biodegradable films; however, their weak mechanical and barrier properties limit their practical utility. This study introduces an innovative multilayer film production method, combining electrospun polycaprolactone (PCL) fibers with a chitosan matrix. Two configurations were investigated: (1) nonwoven PCL layers placed between chitosan sheets and (2) a chitosan sheet sandwiched between two nonwoven PCL layers. Both systems were evaluated using PCL fibers derived from medical-grade and technical-grade polymers. The chitosan/polycaprolactone/chitosan (CH/PCL/CH) configuration demonstrated superior performance, achieving enhanced interlayer cohesion and significantly improved mechanical strength, durability, and barrier properties. Notably, this configuration achieved tensile strength and elongation at break values of 57.1 MPa and 36.3%, respectively-more than double those of pure chitosan films. This breakthrough underscores the potential of multilayered biopolymer films as eco-friendly packaging solutions, offering exceptional promise for sustainable applications in the food packaging industry.
