Bio-nanocomposite Materials for Food Packaging Applications: Types of Biopolymer and Nano-sized Filler (2014, background): “Nowadays, the advent of technology has led to the formation of synthetic biopoloymers which include polylactic acid (PLA), polycaprolactone (PCL), polyglycolic acid (PGA), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and polybutylene succinate PBS (Rhim et al., 2013).”
Active composite starch films containing green synthetized silver nanoparticles (2017, background): “With regard to other nanocomposite films, tortuosity has beenmentioned as the main factor that allows to explain the films barrier properties improvement (Abreu et al., 2015; Kanmani & Rhim, 2014a; Rhim et al., 2013b).”
