This Brief is concerned with the material chemistry of food
packaging materials. It introduces the properties and peculiarities
of typical packaging materials, such as plastics, cellulose
components, ceramics and metals. Their overall performance as food
packaging material is determined by the chemical and physical
properties. The Brief describes how the final properties of a food
packaging material can be influenced through chemical modifications
in the structure and composition of the used components. The
authors also cover potential chemical reactions of food packaging
materials that may affect their performance. Potential hazards that
may arise, such as influences on the product quality, or effects on
their recycling or disposal, are discussed. Different influences,
like metal corrosion, chemical resistance and degradability of the
main packaging materials, or properties like hydrophobicity,
surface energy and migration have to be taken into account. This
Brief gives an introduction to all these different aspects of food
packaging.
