Effect of cardanol on the physical and chemical properties of sodium caseinate-coated papers for packaging applications by Jihyeon Hwang, Yeon-Ji Jo, Dowan Kim

“…Consequently, with increasing CL content, the hydrophobicity of the CasNa/CL-coated papers is enhanced with a reduction in the water-vapor transmittance rate from 461.3 ± 2.0 to 389.8 ± 3.9 g/m2·day and an increase in the water contact angle from 56.6 ± 2.4° to 72.9 ± 1.1°. Notably, the taste and flavor of coffee packaged with commercial and CasNa/CL (100 %)-coated coffee drip bags are similar, possibly owing to the good gas barrier properties of the CasNa/CL-coated papers. …”
