Abstract
Recently, the development of materials with antimicrobial properties has become a challenge under scrutiny. The incorporation of copper nanoparticles (NpCu) into a chitosan matrix appears to represent a viable strategy to contain the particles and prevent their oxidation. Regarding the physical properties, the nanocomposite films (CHCu) showed a decrease in the elongation at break (5 %) and an increase in the tensile strength of 10 % concerning chitosan films (control). They also showed solubility values lower than 5 % while the swelling diminished by 50 %, on average. The dynamical mechanical analysis (DMA) of nanocomposites revealed two thermal events located at 113° and 178 °C, which matched the glass transitions of the CH-enriched phase and nanoparticles-enriched phase, respectively. In addition, the thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) detected a greater stability of the nanocomposites. Chitosan films and the NpCu-loaded nanocomposites demonstrated excellent antibacterial capacity against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, proved through diffusion disc, zeta potential, and ATR-FTIR techniques. Additionally, the penetration of individual NpCu particles into bacterial cells and the leakage of cell content were verified by TEM. The mechanism of the antibacterial activity of the nanocomposites involved the interaction of chitosan with the bacterial outer membrane or cell wall and the diffusion of the NpCu through the cells. These materials could be applied in diverse fields of biology, medicine, or food packaging.

Abstract
Plastic waste is one cause of climate change. To solve this problem, packaging films are increasingly produced from biodegradable polymers. Eco-friendly carboxymethyl cellulose and its blends have been developed for such a solution. Herein, a unique strategy is demonstrated to improve the mechanical and barrier properties of carboxymethyl cellulose/poly(vinyl alcohol) (CMC/PVA) blended films for the packaging of nonfood dried products. The blended films were impregnated with buckypapers containing different combinations of multiwalled carbon nanotubes, two-dimensional molybdenum disulfide (2D MoS2) nanoplatelets, and helical carbon nanotubes (HCNTs). Compared to the blend, the polymer composite films exhibit significant increases in tensile strength (~105 %, from 25.53 to 52.41 MPa), Young's modulus (~297 %, from 155.48 to 617.48 MPa), and toughness (~46 %, from 6.69 to 9.75 MJ m-3). Polymer composite films containing HCNTs in buckypapers offer the highest toughness. For barrier properties, the polymer composite films are opaque. The water vapor transmission rate of the blended films decreases (~52 %, from 13.09 to 6.25 g h-1 m-2). Moreover, the maximum thermal-degradation temperature of the blend rises from 296 to 301 °C, especially for the polymer composite films with buckypapers containing MoS2 nanosheets that contribute to the barrier effect for both water vapor and thermal-decomposition gas molecules.

Abstract
Food loss and waste occur for many reasons, from crop processing to household leftovers. Even though some waste generation is unavoidable, a considerable amount is due to supply chain inefficiencies and damage during transport and handling. Packaging design and materials innovations represent real opportunities to reduce food waste within the supply chain. Besides, changes in people's lifestyles have increased the demand for high-quality, fresh, minimally processed, and ready-to-eat food products with extended shelf-life, that need to meet strict and constantly renewed food safety regulations. In this regard, accurate monitoring of food quality and spoilage is necessary to diminish both health hazards and food waste. Thus, this work provides an overview of the most recent advances in the investigation and development of food packaging materials and design with the aim to improve food chain sustainability. Enhanced barrier and surface properties as well as active materials for food conservation are reviewed. Likewise, the function, importance, current availability, and future trends of intelligent and smart packaging systems are presented, especially considering biobased sensor development by 3D printing technology. In addition, driving factors affecting fully biobased packaging design and materials development and production are discussed, considering byproducts and waste minimization and revalorization, recyclability, biodegradability, and other possible ends-of-life and their impact on product/package system sustainability.

Abstract
The consumer demand for safe, "healthy," and premium foods, preferably with an extended shelf-life; demand for easy packaging; and choice for more sustainable food packaging have contributed to the development of novel packaging technologies. The application of adequate packaging materials has recently become a major post-harvest challenge concerning the control of fungi and mycotoxin. This review will describe the current antifungal packaging technology involved to prevent the contamination of fungi and mycotoxin, along with the characteristics and mechanism of action in food products. Antifungal packaging has incredible potential in the food packaging sector. The most suitable approach for the safe storage of agricultural produce for farmers is the hermetic packaging technology, which maintains quality while providing a good barrier against fungi and mycotoxin. Furthermore, active antifungal packaging is a viable method for incorporating antifungal agents against pathogenic fungi. Essential oils and organic acid have received more scientific attention due to their increased efficacy against mold growth. Polypeptides, chitosan, and natamycin incorporated in active packaging significantly reduced fungi. Even though nanotechnological advancements in antifungal packaging are promising, safety and regulation issues remain significant concerns.

Abstract
A critical overview of current approaches to the development of starch-containing packaging, integrating the principles of green chemistry (GC), green technology (GT) and green nanotechnology (GN) with those of green packaging (GP) to produce materials important for both us and the planet is given. First, as a relationship between GP and GC, the benefits of natural bioactive compounds are analyzed and the state-of-the-art is updated in terms of the starch packaging incorporating green chemicals that normally help us to maintain health, are environmentally friendly and are obtained via GC. Newer approaches are identified, such as the incorporation of vitamins or minerals into films and coatings. Second, the relationship between GP and GT is assessed by analyzing the influence on starch films of green physical treatments such as UV, electron beam or gamma irradiation, and plasma; emerging research areas are proposed, such as the use of cold atmospheric plasma for the production of films. Thirdly, the approaches on how GN can be used successfully to improve the mechanical properties and bioactivity of packaging are summarized; current trends are identified, such as a green synthesis of bionanocomposites containing phytosynthesized metal nanoparticles. Last but not least, bioinspiration ideas for the design of the future green packaging containing starch are presented.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The article reviews the recent developments in bioplastic food packaging. Several bioplastic materials (polylactide, polyhydroxyalkanoates, and starch) have been successfully converted into food packaging using conventional plastic conversion technologies including extrusion, injection molding, and compression molding. Recently, bioplastic packaging has been developed into active packaging which can either control the release of active ingredients or scavenge undesirable substances. This review emphasizes the advances in bioplastic packaging with regard to active packaging applications and applications requiring gas and water barrier. RESULTS The review shows that antioxidant and antimicrobial functions are major developments for the control-release application in bioplastic packaging. Factors affecting the release of active ingredients have been reviewed. The sorption of low molecular weight substances such as humidity, aromas, and gases, also affects the properties of packaging materials. Some patents are available for oxygen-scavenging bioplastic packaging. Moreover, improved high-barrier packaging technologies (modified polymer, coating, and lamination) have been developed to increase the shelf-life of food products. CONCLUSION The finding shows that the development of bioplastic into food packaging included control-release (desorption), scavenging (absorption) and permeation technologies. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
The development of active bilayer systems is a novel strategy for the application of active packaging to maintain or prolong the shelf-life of food products. A bilayer system was assembled in situ into a thermocompression unit through a two-step procedure. One of the layers was obtained by a casting process and consisted of a chitosan-based nanocomposite functionalized with gallic acid (GA); the other was shaped by the spreading of polyvinyl alcohol solution on the nanocomposite. Then, a stage of thermocompression formed the bilayer system. In this way, a feasible material with water vapor and oxygen barrier as well as UV barrier properties due to the presence of GA was designed by a thermocompression process which can be industrially scaled representing a technological progress. The formation of the bilayers was corroborated by SEM allowing discerning between both, the PVA layer and the nanocomposite layer. On the other hand, the corroboration of interactions between the layers of the system was carried out through ATR-FTIR and DSC analysis. The system was used as packaging of a food susceptible to undergo oxidation such as walnut flour, generating a delay in the formation of hydroperoxides and secondary oxidation compounds compared with a synthetic container. These results indicated that bilayer materials can be useful for the conservation of this type of foods.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In this paper, a novel modified microcrystalline corn straw cellulose (MMCSC) was prepared by ultrasonic/microwave-assisted treatment. Effective incorporation of MMCSC into corn distarch phosphate (CDP)-based composite films was investigated. RESULTS As the proportion of MMCSC was increased, tensile strength increased initially before decreasing, and the elongation at break always decreased. The composite film of MMCSC20 showed the lowest water vapor permeability (2.917 × 10-7 g m-1 h-1 Pa-1 ). The measurement of surface color showed that by the increasing of the MMCSC proportion in composite films, the L* and b* values and the total color difference (ΔE* ) increased, while a* values decreased. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that, with the incorporation of MMCSC, the stable structure of the films was enhanced through cross-linking and the crystallinity was increased. A scanning electron microscopy study revealed the surface microstructure of films (MMCSC0-MMCSC30) was smooth and homogeneous, and there was no distinct separation in the matrix of composite films. CONCLUSION The incorporation of suitable MMCSC could improve the properties of composite films. The CDP-MMCSC films, which are completely biodegradable and environmental friendly, have a high potential to be used for food packaging. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Chitosan-based nanocomposites have a significant industrial impact related to the possibility to design and create new materials and structures. Cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) can be extracted from microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) by controlled acid hydrolysis with H2SO4. This work was focused on: to study the microstructure of CNC isolated from MCC after different hydrolysis times; to develop nanocomposites chitosan-based films; to characterize their structural and thermo-mechanical properties; to analyze the spectral differences among samples by means of ATR-FTIR in combination with principal component analysis (PCA) and square partial minimums model (PLS). It is worth noting that the selected condition for isolate the CNC from MCC was the acid treatment for 2 h, evidenced by size measurements. This fact was supported by transmission electron microscope (TEM) and dynamic light scattering (DLS). In this regard, SEM studies of films showed an assembly process between the nanocelluloses and the CH matrix. The incorporation of CNC into the films resulted in strong interactions between the filler and the matrix demonstrating the affinity between the phases and modifying the mechanical profiles. In summary, CNC was found to be a satisfactory reinforcing agent in biodegradable nanocomposite chitosan-based packaging and are promising as a means to develop tailor-made materials.

Abstract
Individual films of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) and polylactic acid (PLA) and their blends were developed by solvent casting. PHA was obtained from activated sludges from a wastewater-treatment system at a laboratory scale. This work focused on analyzing the microstructural properties and thermal behaviors of individual films of PHA and PLA as well as those of their blends. The behaviors of the biodegradation processes of the individual films and blends were examined from a microstructural point of view. ATR-FTIR spectra indicated the existence of weak molecular interactions between the polymers. The formulation of blend films improved the crystallinity of PLA; additionally, it induced the polymer-recrystallization phenomenon, because crystallized PHA acted as a PLA-nucleating agent. This phenomenon explains the improvements in the films' water-vapor-barrier properties. The blends exposed to a biodegradation process showed an intermediate behavior between PLA and PHA, leading to a consistent basis for designing systems tailored to a particular purpose.

Abstract
Edible films were casted using aqueous solutions of corn distarch phosphate (CDP, 3 wt%) and corn straw cellulose (CSC, 0.5 wt%). The effects of ultrasonic, microwave and ultrasonic/microwave-assisted treatment on mechanical properties and light transmittance, as well as the water vapour permeability (WVP) of edible films, were evaluated. It was found that corn distarch phosphate/corn straw cellulose (CDP/CSC) films treated using ultrasonic waves/microwaves for a certain condition has a distinct increase in tensile strength, elongation at break and light transmittance and a drastic decrease in WVP. Moreover, scanning electron microscopy demonstrated that the surface and cross-section morphology of CDP/CSC films after ultrasonic/microwave-assisted treatment were smoother, denser and without a notable phase separation compared with control films. The results of mechanical properties and barrier properties were in agreement with the changes in molecular interactions detected by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. These findings indicate that ultrasonic/microwave-assisted treatment can improve the application of biodegradable films.

Abstract
This work aimed to study the effect of nanocrystalline corn straw cellulose (NCSC) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) on the properties of biodegradable corn distarch phosphate (CDP) films. The mechanical properties and barrier properties were investigated. Meanwhile, the compatibility, crystallization, thermal stability, and morphological structure of the films were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (X-RD), thermogravimetric (TGA), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). In contrast with the CDP films, incorporation of NCSC in the films improved their tensile strength (TS) significantly, and incorporation of PEG improved their elongation at break (EAB) significantly else. PEG, CDP, and NCSC (P-CDP/NCSC) blend films had the best barrier properties. The thermal stability of the films was increased by the incorporation of NCSC. X-RD showed that CDP and NCSC (CDP/NCSC) films had higher crystallinity. SEM revealed that all films had smooth surface, while the films presented a uniform network structure through the incorporation of NCSC.
