Abstract
The present invention describes tunable methods of treating cellulosic materials with a barrier coating comprising a prolamine and at least one polyol fatty acid ester that provides increased oil and/or grease resistance to such materials without sacrificing the biodegradability thereof. The methods as disclosed provide for adhering of the barrier coating on articles including articles comprising cellulosic materials and articles made by such methods. The materials thus treated display higher lipophobicity and may be used in any application where such features are desired.
