Eugenol: Biosynthesis, Toxicity and Uses

In this compilation, the use of eugenol for the development of new active packaging material is presented using two different technologies for two polymer matrices. First, linear low density polyethylene films were impregnated with eugenol using supercritical CO2 assisted impregnation. In a second approach, eugenol was grafted onto cellulose using a polycarboxylic acid as linking agent for the pre...
