... [26][27][28][29][30] Biodegradation, biopolymer, and bio-composites Nowadays, the largest part of materials used in packaging industries is based on synthetic plastics with a production of more than 200 million tones/year and annual growth of approximately 5%, which represents the largest field of crude oil utilization. 14,31,32 Packaging materials for food, like any other short-term storage packaging material, present a serious global environmental problem due to their degradation properties. Petrochemical-based plastics such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyvinylchloride (PVC), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), and polyamide (PA) have been increasingly used as packaging materials due to their availability at relatively low cost and good mechanical performance such as tensile and tear strength; good barrier to oxygen, carbon dioxide, anhydride; and aroma compound and heat sealability. ...
