%X Hydrocarbon-derived polymers have been utilized in
various packaging applications, such as pouches, films, foamed containers,
rigid containers, and multiple components for medical, food, and other uses.
However, mounting environmental
considerations increased knowledge of the harmful consequences of
greenhouse gas emissions, landfills, and disposal difficulties. Rising oil
prices are forcing researchers and businesses to produce environmentally
friendly packaging. These new sustainability requirements are particularly
suited to biomass-based products, instead of petroleum sources; sourced from
biomass entities. More functional and performance-oriented packaging is
necessary despite the widespread usage of bio-based materials like paper. As a
result, the transition to eco-friendly packaging will necessitate the
improvement of existing bio-derived packaging and the development of new bio-derived
materials like biopolymer paper coatings. The goal of this brief study was to
give a synopsis of the present status of bio-derived packaging and an insight into ongoing and prospective
developments in sustainable next-generation paper coatings for the
packaging industry.
