Progress in Barrier Coating Technology for Paper-based Food Packaging, 19PaperCon
The food and beverage market will continue to dominate market share for paper and paperboard packaging whose continuous improvements for a number of applications place challenging requirements for functional and barrier properties. The paper-based packaging market continues to expand relative to petro-based and bio-based coatings whose manufacture is intended to render functional and barrier properties of paper and paperboard. Different types of coatings, such as water-based biopolymers, are expected to make inroads into more traditional petroleum-based wax and plastic laminate paperboard products for fresh food bakery, frozen food, and take-out containers applications because of their biocompatibility. Apart from petroleum-based and bio-based coatings, nanocomposites display sufficiently unique properties that they been studied at an accelerating pace for making active and smart packaging for food packaging.
