Best answer
The correct option is (c) Polymerisation

For explanation: Polymerisation is not a mechanism of film formation in edible coating. Simple co-acervation, compound co-acervation and gelation are mechanisms of film formation in edible coating. Polymerisation is a phenomenon when monomers combine together to form a polymer. Film formation mechanisms are those which tell about the interaction of film and the substrate.
