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.
