Abstract

A transparent perhydropolysilazane-derived-SiO_x coated cellulose film with high gas barrier properties was fabricated via a facile solution dip-coating followed by UV curing method. The conversion of perhydropolysilazane to SiO_x was proved by ATR-FTIR, XPS and TOF–SIMS characterizations. AFM and SEM images revealed the smoothness of the coating and good adhesion between the cellulose substrate and the coating. The thickness of the SiO_x coating (50–450 nm) can be tuned by changing the concentration of the perhydropolysilazane precursor solution. The cellulose film (35 µm in thickness) with 450 nm thick SiO_x coating exhibits low oxygen transmission rate (OTR) value of 0.82 cm³/m²·day and water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) value of 1.28 g/m²·day. The excellent oxygen and water vapor barrier properties, ultrahigh transparency and complete biodegradability of the SiO_x coated cellulose film endow it competitive potential for packaging applications.

Graphical abstract

A transparent perhydropolysilazane-derived-SiO_x layer is tightly coated on a cellulose film via a facile solution dip-coating followed by UV curing method. The sandwich structured cellulose-SiO_x films show excellent oxygen and water vapor barrier properties as well as ultrahigh transparency and complete biodegradability, which has a great potential for food, medicine and other packaging applications.
