Abstract: Carboxyl methyl glucomannan konjac (CMKGM)-soy protein isolated (SPI) conjugate were prepared by solution method and characterized by FT-IR, UV Scan, SEM and Tg. The properties of the conjugate film were tested. The results indicated that there is strong interaction between CMKGM and SPI when the conditions are as follow: m(carboxyl methyl glucomannan): m(SPI)=1.5:1, pH10, 6ml phosphorus oxychloride/100g dry powder, at 40℃ and 3 hours reaction. Tensile strength, moisture resistance and gas barrier of the blend film are improved markedly. The tensile strength increases 117.6% compared to CMKGM. The moisture absorption decreases 19.02% compared to CMKGM. The humidity-penetrate coefficient decreases 40.97% to C M K G M .
