Abstract: Tensile strength (TS) and Air permeability (Ap) were investigated in the zein Coating prepared by different processing parameters,such as zein concentration,pH,dried temperature and amount of plasticizing agents added.The optimum results of the best zein coating appearanse TS and Ap were 10% zein,pH=5,drying temperature 45℃ and 2% glycerine.Ts was 1.47kN/m,Ap was 1.54μm/Pa.s.
