The use of natural and safe ingredients in green food packaging material is a hot research topic. This study investigated the effect of different emulsifiers on starch film properties. Three types of emulsifiers, including Tween 80 as a small-molecule surfactant, sodium caseinate (CAS), whey protein isolate (WPI), and gelatin (GE) as macromolecule emulsifiers, whey protein isolate fibril (WPIF) as a particle emulsifier, were utilized to prepare Zanthoxylum bungeanum essential oil (ZBO) emulsions. The mechanical, physical, thermal, antibacterial properties, microstructure and essential oil release of starch films were investigated. CAS-ZBO nanoemulsion exhibited the smallest particle size of 198.6 ± 2.2 nm. The film properties changed with different emulsifiers. CAS-ZBO film showed the highest tensile strength value. CAS-ZBO and WPIF-ZBO films exhibited lower water vapor permeability than Tween-ZBO. CAS-ZBO film showed good dispersion of essential oil, the slowest release rate of essential oils in all food simulants, and the best antibacterial effect against Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes. The films composed of CAS-ZBO nanoemulsion, corn starch, and glycerol are considered more suitable for food packaging. This work indicated that natural macromolecule emulsifiers of CAS and WPIF are expected to be used in green food packaging material to offer better film properties.
