Abstract
This research article explores the viability of biodegradable nanomaterials for sustainable food packaging applications. The study involves a thorough analysis of the materials, including material characterisation, mechanical testing, barrier testing, and biodegradation tests. The material characterisation demonstrates a consistent distribution of nanoparticles throughout the polymer matrix, as validated by SEM and TEM examination. XRD analysis also indicates the presence of crystalline phases in the nanomaterials. FTIR spectroscopy is a technique that can identify specific functional groups and chemical bonds in a substance, allowing us to get knowledge about its composition and compatibility. Ongoing research and development are crucial to enhance the efficiency and economic feasibility of packaging materials made from biodegradable nanomaterials. This will help advance the sustainability of the food packaging sector.
