Nanocomposite films of soluble soybean polysaccharide (SSPS)/nano zinc oxide (nZnO) reinforced with microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) were developed by solvent casting method. The structure, optical, barrier, thermal, surface wettability, mechanical properties and antimicrobial activity of the SSPS/MFC, SSPS/nZnO and SSPS/ nZnO/MFC nanocomposite films were evaluated. Attenuated total reflection-Fourier transform infrared (ATRFTIR) spectra indicated interactions between SSPS and the nano-fillers. The nanocomposite films containing MFC showed improved tensile strength, stiffness, ultraviolet (UV) light barrier property, thermal stability and water resistance when compared with the neat SSPS film. The nZnO-incorporated nanocomposite films exhibited good antimicrobial activity against E. coli and B. subtlis. Overall, the MFC-reinforced SSPS/nZnO nanocomposite films possessed desirable characteristics to be considered as potential candidates for antimicrobial packaging and biomedical applications.
