Abstract
This mini-review discusses existing technology and future issues in applying nanocellulose as a starch-based packaging of food material. Biopolymers, mainly starch as packaging materials, are increasingly replacing petroleum plastics. This mini-review encompasses applying the commonly used nanocellulose starch-based bio packaging material, focusing on production processes, properties, and analysis of potential uses in starch-based bio packaging. The use of nanocellulose as an alternative material for starch-based bio packaging substitutes conventional polymers for food packaging and its entirely new properties and characterization. Microorganisms can produce cellulose biopolymers through the fermentation process of various biological resources (e.g., bacterial cellulose). Biomass can be produced directly from various plants (pineapple, water hyacinth, and others). Researchers are currently focused on reducing the problem of pollution due to conventional plastics produced from fossil fuels.
