ملخص المقالة :
Nanotechnology has significantly advanced biodegradable food packaging by enhancing essential properties such as mechanical strength, barrier performance, and antimicrobial functionality. Traditional packaging materials, especially plastics, pose severe environmental challenges due to their long-lasting resistance to degradation. This review highlights the integration of various nanomaterials, including nanocellulose, chitosan, and metal nanoparticles, into biodegradable packaging films to improve their functionality and sustainability. These nanomaterials not only extend the shelf life of food products by offering superior protection but also enhance food safety by minimizing microbial contamination. Despite these advantages, the widespread adoption of these innovations faces obstacles such as high production costs, regulatory challenges, and consumer acceptance. Addressing these hurdles is crucial for the commercialization of nano-enhanced biodegradable films. Future research is expected to focus on developing more sustainable nanomaterials, cost-effective production methods, and clear regulatory frameworks to facilitate the transition to environmentally friendly packaging solutions in the food industry.
