Biomaterials in Food Packaging

Biomaterials in Food Packaging presents up-to-date research on the  applications and development of the packaging materials that originate  from biological resources. It discusses the advances made in bioactive,  biodegradable, edible films, and nano-based smart materials for food  packaging applications that can be a substitute for their synthetic  counterparts to enhance the food’s shelf life significantly. It not only  encompasses a comprehensive overview of environment-compatible and  biodegradable biomaterials but also highlights the recent trends in  their applications in food packaging. The book is a valuable reference  for researchers, undergraduate and postgraduate students, academicians,  educators, industry scientists, and general readers seeking bio-based  materials for food packaging applications.
