Nanostructured Materials for Food Packaging Applications brings together the latest advances in the preparation of nanostructured materials with the required properties and performance for food packaging applications. The book begins by summarizing the state-of-the-art, opportunities, challenges and solutions in terms of materials for packaging, while also introducing the polymers and fillers in use, their general characteristics and modifications. This is followed by detailed coverage of characterization techniques, fabrication methods and the possibilities for fully green nanoscale materials. The subsequent chapters focus on specific nanomaterials and nanocomposites for food packaging, covering a broad range of materials, methods, and properties. The final chapters highlight functionalized nanomaterials, intelligent and smart packaging systems, kinetic studies, modelling and simulation, safety assessment, and lifecycle assessment of food packaging materials. This book will be of interest to researchers and advanced students across nanotechnology, polymer science, films, barriers, coatings, packaging, food science, chemistry, and materials science, as well as scientists, engineers, and R&D professionals.
