Bio-Based Packaging Bio-Based PackagingAn authoritative and up-to-date review of sustainable packaging development and applicationsBio-Based Packaging explores using renewable and biodegradable materials as sustainable alternatives to non-renewable, petroleum-based packaging. This comprehensive volume surveys the properties of biopolymers, the environmental and economic impact of bio-based packaging, and new and emerging technologies that are increasing the number of potential applications of green materials in the packaging industry. Contributions address the advantages and challenges of bio-based packaging, discuss new materials to be used for food packaging, and highlight cutting-edge research on polymers such as starch, protein, polylactic acid (PLA), pectin, nanocellulose, and their nanocomposites.In-depth yet accessible chapters provide balanced coverage of a broad range of practical topics, including life cycle assessment (LCA) of bio-based packaging products, consumer perceptions and preferences, supply chains, business strategies and markets in biodegradable food packaging, manufacturing of bio-based packaging materials, and regulations for food packaging materials. Detailed discussions provide valuable insight into the opportunities for biopolymers in end-use sectors, the barriers to biopolymer-based concepts in the packaging market, recent advances made in the field of biopolymeric composite materials, the future of bio-plastics in commercial food packaging, and more. This book:Provides deep coverage of the bio-based packaging development, characterization, regulations and environmental and socio-economic impactContains real-world case studies of bio-based packaging applicationsIncludes an overview of recent advances and emerging aspects of nanotechnology for development of sustainable composites for packagingDiscusses renewable sources for packaging material and the reuse and recycling of bio-based packaging productsBio-Based Packaging is essential reading for academics, researchers, and industry professionals working in packaging materials, renewable resources, sustainability, polymerization technology, food technology, material engineering, and related fields.For more information on the Wiley Series in Renewable Resources, visit This item is printed on demand.
