Natural Polymer-Based Films and Coatings in Food Technology provides a thorough overview of several bio-based polymers used in the preparation of single- or multi-layer films and coatings, as well as their current and potential applications in the field of food science. The book starts with an introduction to biopolymer films and coatings, followed by a discussion of their properties, production, and utilization as smart packaging materials. It then discusses the applications and future trends of biopolymer films and coatings in food technology, as well as the interaction between food and packaging, including chemical migration.

In the last chapters, the book addresses materials' biodegradation, lifecycle assessment, and packaging legal regulations, ending with a presentation of real-world examples of industrial and commercial applications. This book is a valuable resource for academic and industrial researchers, materials scientists, and R&D professionals seeking to explore the advancements and applications of natural polymer-based films and coatings in the food industry.
