Packaging Application for the Different Polymer Nanocomposites

By Dr Prof Ahmed Youssef and Ahmed Youssef

Polymer nanocomposites open a chance for the use of novel, high performance, lightweight, and green nanocomposite materials making them replace conventional non-biodegradable petroleum-based plastic packaging materials. Up to now, the most studied polymer nanocomposites for packaging applications are starch and cellulose derivatives, chitosan, polylactic acid (PLA), polycaprolactone (PCL), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), carboxyl methyl cellulose (CMC), and polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB).
