Bionanocomposites: Smart biodegradable packaging material for food preservation
Original language description
In this era of increasing demands and consequently improving technology, food packaging is not only aimed to prevent food products from external dust and dirt particles, but also to perform several other functions, such as moisture control, oxygen scavenging, and a number of other actions including antimicrobial activity as well. But, with improving technology, which claims to fulfill most of the consumers' requirements, health and environmental risks have been a major concern. Biodegradable polymers offer an environmentally friendly alternative to these hazardous packaging materials. To impart active or smart properties to polymeric packaging films, polymers can be reinforced with nano-materials. These so formed nanocomposites may exhibit one or more of the aforementioned properties of an active or smart packaging. This chapter deals with methods of preparation of polymeric nanocomposites, types and properties of nanoreinforcements, and details of few important biodegradable polymers that are commonly used for preparing nanocomposites for food packaging purposes. This chapter also gives an account of commercial active food packaging materials that are currently used in the market.
