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. 

TAPPI conference proceedings and presentations, technical papers, and publication articles provide technical and management data and solutions on topics covering the Pulp, Paper, Tissue, Corrugated Packaging, Flexible Packaging, Nanotechnology and Converting Industries.
