U.S. researchers have developed reusable "gelee-ice" which does not contain water when melted. The gelatine-derived material is intended to improve food hygiene and be more environmentally friendly than hermetically-derived containers. (Continue reading)
The new material is considered ideal for food supply chains and transportation of chemical drugs at the University of California Davis have developed a reusable and compostable material from gelatin that behaves like ice cubes, but does not leak when thawing. The new material is considered ideal for food supply chains and drug transport. The team is also exploring protein-based structures for safe coatings for food and laboratory-grown meat scaf…
Reusable ‘jelly ice’ stays cold without melting into water
In the quest to revolutionize cold storage and transportation without the downsides of melting ice, researchers have pioneered an innovative substance known as “jelly ice.” This groundbreaking material, developed through a one-step process using gelatin — a naturally derived biopolymer commonly found in food products — offers a sustainable, reusable, and compostable alternative to traditional […]
Jelly Ice cools like ice without melting. Reusable, compostable and ideal for food and medicine transports. The article researchers invent "Jelly Ice: Cools like ice, but never drips first appeared on ingenieur.de - Jobbörse und Nachrichtsportal für Ingenieure.
Reusable ‘Jelly Ice’ Keeps Things Cold — Without Meltwater
Jelly ice is a reusable, compostable alternative to regular ice because it doesn’t melt into a mess. Researchers created it from gelatin, and now they’re testing other food-safe proteins for coatings and lab-grown meat scaffolds. They will present their results at ACS Fall 2025.
