Abstract
Environmental and food safety concerns are driving the development of biodegradable packaging as a partial replacement for petrochemical-based polymers. This review will keep you up to date on the latest developments in biodegradable packaging materials and the role of virtual technology. Gelatin, starch, chitosan, cellulose, and polylactic acid are examples of common biodegradable materials. Tensile strength, tear resistance, permeability, degradability, and solubility are all properties that influence the selection and use of food packaging materials whereas assimilation is useful in process of biodegradation. Microbial enzymatic actions and bio assimilation can degrade biodegradable films in soil. To improve the performance of packaging materials, nanoparticles are incorporated into blended films.
