Nanotechnology-based packaging is a rapidly advancing field in the food industry, offering the potential for the development of polymer nanocomposites that can provide stronger, lighter, cheaper, more functional, and safer food packaging materials. This comprehensive volume discusses the advancements, functions, and applications of nanotechnology in food packaging, as well as the important properties of polymer nanocomposites as packaging materials. It covers various preparative methods and analytical techniques used in this field. Chapters explore the use of nanofillers for designing active antimicrobial and antioxidant packaging systems, smart/intelligent nanocomposite packaging with sensors, indicators, bar codes, and radiofrequency indicators, the suitability of natural and synthetic biopolymers for fabricating bionanocomposite food packaging, the role of nanotechnology in preserving and maintaining the odor and flavor of packed food, and the development of nanotechnology-based edible packaging in the form of coatings and thin films. Additionally, the book assesses the potential health and safety issues associated with the involvement of nanotechnology in food applications.
