OMW typically contains a wide range of phenol-type molecules, which are natural antioxidants and\/or antibacterials. In order to exploit the bioactive molecules and simultaneously decrease the environmental impact of such a food waste stream, OMW has been intercalated into the host structure of ZnAl layered double hydroxide (LDH) and employed as an integrative filler for the preparation of poly(butylene succinate) (PBS) composites by in situ polymerization. From the view point of the polymer continuous phase as well as from the side of the hybrid filler, an investigation was performed in terms of molecular and morphological characteristics by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD); also, the thermal and mechanical properties were evaluated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and dynamic thermomechanical analysis (DMTA). Antibacterial properties have been assessed against a Gram-positive and a Gram-negative bacterium, Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, respectively, as representatives of potential agents of foodborne illnesses.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms20102376","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,14]],"date-time":"2019-05-14T10:42:33Z","timestamp":1557830553000},"page":"2376","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Olive Mill Wastewater Valorization in Multifunctional Biopolymer Composites for Antibacterial Packaging Application"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4445-3880","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Laura","family":"Sisti","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Dipartimento di Ingegneria Civile, Chimica, Ambientale e dei Materiali, Universit\u00e0 di Bologna, Via Terracini 28, 40131 Bologna, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7388-8894","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Grazia","family":"Totaro","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Dipartimento di Ingegneria Civile, Chimica, Ambientale e dei Materiali, Universit\u00e0 di Bologna, Via Terracini 28, 40131 Bologna, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nicole","family":"Bozzi Cionci","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Agricultural and Food Sciences, Universit\u00e0 di Bologna, viale Fanin 42, 40127 Bologna, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0181-1572","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Diana","family":"Di Gioia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Agricultural and Food Sciences, Universit\u00e0 di Bologna, viale Fanin 42, 40127 Bologna, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5974-1642","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Annamaria","family":"Celli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Dipartimento di Ingegneria Civile, Chimica, Ambientale e dei Materiali, Universit\u00e0 di Bologna, Via Terracini 28, 40131 Bologna, Italy"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3900-9366","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Vincent","family":"Verney","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institut de Chimie de Clermont Ferrand (ICCF)\u2014UMR 6296 Clermont-Auvergne Universit\u00e9, CNRS, 24 Avenue Blaise Pascal, 63177 Aubiere (CEDEX), France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4671-9630","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fabrice","family":"Leroux","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institut de Chimie de Clermont Ferrand (ICCF)\u2014UMR 6296 Clermont-Auvergne Universit\u00e9, CNRS, 24 Avenue Blaise Pascal, 63177 Aubiere (CEDEX), France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,5,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"10","DOI":"10.1016\/j.scitotenv.2016.10.032","article-title":"Potential applications of olive mill wastewater as biopesticide for crops protection","volume":"576","author":"Saadaoui","year":"2017","journal-title":"Sci.
