Bio-sourced polymers as alternatives to conventional food packaging materials: A review (2021, background): “…the harshness of versatile manufacturing techniques like injection molding, blow molding, blow or vacuum thermoforming processes, and cast film extrusion for the production of packaging material (Jamshidian et al., 2010; Kabasci, 2020, pp. 67–96; Milovanovic et al., 2018; Peelman et al., 2013).”
Effect of nanoclay-type and PLA optical purity on the characteristics of PLA-based nanocomposite films (2013, positive): “It is therefore suitable for use with fresh products and foodstuffs not requiring a packaging with low oxygen permeability performance (Jamshidian et al., 2010).”
Natural Pectin Polysaccharides as Edible Coatings (2015, background): “In fact, packaging waste accounted for 32.5 million tons or 17.7% of the total municipal solid waste (MSW) in 2013 in the USA [1] and 19.3 million tons or around 25% in 2014 in Europe [2].”
Key Improvements in Interfacial Adhesion and Dispersion of Fibers/Fillers in Polymer Matrix Composites; Focus on PLA Matrix Composites (2021, background): “which impeded its use in many applications [45].”
