DOI: DOI: 10.1007/978-3-032-08027-1Online resources: Summary: Bio-based polymers in food packaging: properties and applications -- Starch-based polymers for sustainable food packaging: advances and applications -- Starch-based polymers in food packaging: recent advances.-Pectin-based edible films: a natural approach to food packaging.-Cellulose nanofiber-based innovation in sustainable food packaging -- Alginate in food packaging: seaweed-derived solutions for sustainability -- chitosan in food packaging: harnessing crustacean waste -- Carrageenan-based biopolymer films and coatings for sustainable food packaging -- Agar-based materials for sustainable and eco-friendly food packaging solutions.-Protein-based food packaging films soy, whey, and beyond for barrier properties.-Application of natural wax in biopolymer food packaging film.-Agro-waste materials in sustainable food packaging.-Edible films and coatings: towards zero-waste packaging -- prospects and challenges of nanotechnology in functional food packaging -- Advances in food packaging with nanotechnology-enhanced biomaterials.-Safety prospects & environmental impact of biodegradable packaging materials.Summary: This book explores sustainable alternatives to conventional plastics in food packaging, with a focus on a broad spectrum of bio-based materials, including starch, pectin, cellulose nanofibers, marine-derived polymers, proteins, natural waxes, and agro-waste. It explores advances in nanotechnology, active and intelligent packaging systems, and addresses key environmental and regulatory considerations such as biodegradation and life cycle assessments. Bringing together insights from multiple disciplines, the book serves as a valuable reference for researchers, professionals, and policymakers dedicated to developing eco-friendly packaging solutions. Its comprehensive scope, distinctive features, and practical perspectives make it an indispensable resource for those engaged in materials science, sustainability, and the food packaging sector.PPN: PPN: 1947807994Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-SEB | ZDB-2-EES | ZDB-2-SXEE
