Abstract

The use of propolis as an active compound, successfully exploited primarily in the pharmaceutical field, was intended in this work to set up natural packaging materials. To achieve this goal, coating techniques were used for the deposition of active layers on plastic films and cellulosic sheets. The stability of the so obtained active coatings was evaluated according to the polyphenols degradation over time.
