A review of multilayer and composite films and coatings for active biodegradable packaging

npj Science of Food, Год журнала: 2022, Номер 6(1)

Опубликована: Март 11, 2022

Abstract Active biodegradable packaging are being developed from biopolymers which may solve the environmental problems caused by petroleum-based materials (plastics), as well improving shelf life, quality, nutritional profile, and safety of packaged food. The functional performance active ingredients in can be extended controlling their release profiles. This achieved incorporating sandwich-structured including multilayer composite packaging. In materials, profile controlled altering type, structure, thickness different layers. manipulated interactions with surrounding biopolymer matrix. article reviews preparation, properties, applications for ingredients. Besides, basic theory is also elaborated, diffusion, swelling, biodegradation. Mathematical models presented to describe predict thin films, help researchers design improved performance.

Development of sustainable biopolymer-based composites for lightweight applications from agricultural waste biomass: A review

Advanced Industrial and Engineering Polymer Research, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 6(4), С. 436 - 450

Опубликована: Апрель 30, 2023

The exhaustion of available natural resources and rising concerns about the environment have prompted a growing desire to discover innovative ways produce environmentally friendly materials. In an effort alleviate environmental issues connected disposal agricultural waste, many studies engaged on research pertaining waste management. Every year, there are enormous amounts agro based created, which is major issue from economic standpoint. These wastes can be utilized as secondary raw materials create value-added products in accordance with circular economy's guiding principles. exploitation has become critical for development sustainable biopolymer-based composites lightweight applications. To this extent, review presents overview utilization biopolymers building blocks coupled reinforcements fabrication bio Common derived discussed. This also highlights composite methodologies potential applications including challenges opportunities biomass. It was concluded that biomass offers promising route towards more future.

Enabling a circular economy for chemicals in plastics

Current Opinion in Green and Sustainable Chemistry, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 31, С. 100513 - 100513

Опубликована: Май 7, 2021

Enabling a circular economy for plastics in Europe and beyond is an ambitious goal. To reach fully closed loop, numerous challenges knowledge gaps need to be overcome. This review provides list of more than 6000 chemicals reported found overview the assessing their impacts on environment human health along life cycle plastic products. We further identified 1518 plastic-related concern, which should prioritized substitution by safer alternatives. At last, we propose five policy recommendations, including global overarching regulatory framework related chemicals, support target 12.4 UN Sustainable Development Goals.

The plastic health map: A systematic evidence map of human health studies on plastic-associated chemicals

Environment International, Год журнала: 2023, Номер 181, С. 108225 - 108225

The global production and use of plastic materials has increased dramatically since the 1960s there is increasing evidence human health impacts related to exposure plastic-associated chemicals. There is, however, no comprehensive, regulatory, post-market monitoring for effects chemicals or particles it unclear how many these have been investigated in humans, therefore what knowledge gaps are.To create a systematic map peer-reviewed studies investigating potential particles/chemicals on identify research provide recommendations future regulation policy.Medline Embase databases were used primary published English from Jan 1960 - 2022 that relationships between exposures included measured detected bio-samples outcomes. Plastic-associated are: micro nanoplastics, due their widespread occurrence exposure; polymers, main building blocks plastic; plasticizers flame retardants, two most common types additives with highest concentration ranges materials; bisphenols per- polyfluoroalkyl substances, chemical classes known concern are plastics. We extracted metadata population study characteristics (country, intergenerational, sex, age, general/special risk status, design), (plastic-associated particle/chemical, multiple exposures), outcome measures (biochemical, physiological, and/or clinical), which we produced interactive database 'Plastic Health Map' narrative summary.We identified 100,949 unique articles, 3,587 met our inclusion criteria map.
