Covers chemistry, physics, engineering, and therapeutic aspects of
packaging--universal to pharmaceutical, medical, and food
applications This book covers the chemistry, physics, materials
science, engineering, and therapeutic aspects of many different
types of packaging materials, emphasizing throughout the
applicability of various aspects of packaging science and
technology. It also provides a simultaneous discussion of
interrelated fields, and addresses the universal issues within
these fields' application areas. Intended as a technical reference
and as a study aid, it is relevant to anyone who studies or uses
packaging or packaging materials. Packaging Technology and
Engineering: Pharmaceutical, Medical and Food Applications begins
with an overview of the history of the topic. It then offers
chapters on the methods of obtaining raw materials, the chemistry
of polymeric and non-polymeric packaging materials,
physico-chemical quality parameters, and the manufacturing of
packaging. Other topics look at: additives, use, suppliers, safety
and environmental concerns, regulation, anti-fraud activities, new
trends, and the future of packaging technology. The book also
features numerous problems and worked solutions to aid student
comprehension. Covers packaging and packaging materials, their
properties and technologies Addresses the chemical engineering,
physics, and chemistry of packaging materials, and the individual
requirements for food, pharmaceutical, and medical device packaging
Includes current issues such as environmental concerns and
sustainability, recycling and after-use, anti-counterfeiting
technology, and packaging regulations and guidelines Packaging
Technology and Engineering: Pharmaceutical, Medical and Food
Applications will appeal to all packaging technologists,
scientists, and engineers in industry, and in regulatory agencies.
It is also an excellent book for advanced students studying
packaging courses, within pharmacy, pharmaceutical sciences,
chemical sciences, biomedical sciences, medical sciences,
engineering, product design and technology, and food
science/technology.
