The ‘turning yellow’ index is related to the maturity of a mango. Delaying the maturing process can extend the storage period. As shown in Fig. 1(a), the ‘turning yellow’ indexes of groups A and B were significantly lower than that of CK. The ‘turning yellow’ index of group CK reached 52.5% on day 13 of storage, yet groups A and B were at 10% and 5%, respectively, on the same day. This indicates effective maturity retardation in bothgroups A and B with a stronger
effect for group B. Ethylene is a natural ripener produced by fruits and vegetables. The interlayer distance of montmorillonite is around 1.14 lm (Mykola et al., 2008) and the kinetic diameter of ethylene is around 0.00042 lm, so ethylene could be absorbed by bentonite. This is explained by the fact that the coating’s physical barriers are on the surface of the mango. Furthermore, the reduction of the physiological action of the mango seems to be connected to bentonite’s sorption properties, but this will need to be proved through further research.
