Gelatin films containing TP-loaded CSNs with different EEs were prepared.
CSNs enhanced the compactness of films and restricted gelatin chain relaxation.
TP release in 50% ethanol fatty food simulant was much faster than 95% ethanol.
TP release was controlled by EE (0% > 51.3% > 83.3% > 96.9%) at both food simulants.
Films were intact when exposed to 95% ethanol but not for 50% ethanol.
