Resumen: | The materials most used for food packaging are the petrochemical-based polymers, due to their availability in large quantities at low cost and favourable functionality characteristics, such as, good tensile and tear strength, good barrier properties to O2 and heat sealability [1]. However, these materials are totally non-biodegradable, leading to serious ecological problems. As a consequence, the consumer demand has shifted to eco-friendly biodegradable materials, especially from renewable agriculture by-products, food processing industry wastes and low cost natural resources. |
