The development of biopolymer-based films for food packaging is increasing owing to their environmental appeal, renewability, and biodegradability. In this study, transparent and biodegradable konjac glucomannan (KGM)/chitosan (CS)/TEMPO-oxidized chitin nanocrystal (TEMPO-ChNCs) bionanocomposite films were prepared. The TEMPO-ChNCs were prepared from chitin using the 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxylradical (TEMPO) oxidation method and were used as a reinforcement nanofiller for the bionanocomposite films. The effect of TEMPO-ChNCs content on both rheological properties of film-forming solutions (FFS) and structural and physical properties of the resultant films was investigated. The rheological results of the FFS revealed that the TEMPO-ChNCs interacted with KGM and CS through electrostatic interaction and the hydrogen bonds in the bionanocomposite matrix, which was in agreement with the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction results. The microstructure of the films showed that 3% (w/w) TEMPO-ChNCs were homogeneously dispersed within the KGM/CS matrix, reducing the free volume of the biocomposite matrix and improving the final film mechanical and barrier properties (P < 0.05). Furthermore, these bionanocomposite films exhibited good thermal stability. The incorporation of TEMPO-ChNCs in the KGM/CS matrix produced flexible and transparent bionanocomposite films. Thus, this bionanocomposite films has potential use in food packaging applications.
