Abstract The inevitable drawbacks of petrochemical polymer‐based packaging (e.g., extreme loss fossil resources, excessive products’ carbon footprint, and inordinate environmental pollution resulting from the accumulation disposed nonbiodegradable plastic‐based packages) have urged scientists to develop novel materials nature‐inspired biopolymers. Due their biodegradability, non‐toxicity, film‐forming ability, barrier properties versus gasses/aroma, polysaccharides been increasingly valued in developing food at lab or industrial scale. Nonetheless, these valuable biopolymers also suffer some inherent deficiencies, that is, low resistance water poor mechanical attributes. Hitherto, tackling such bottlenecks via modification through chemical/physical approaches applying a combination several has main focus numerous recent studies. In this context, present article, for first time, provides comprehensive update on most utilization common starch, chitosan, xanthan gum, gum Arabic, alginate, gellan, pectin, carrageenan) applications.
