Protein and polysaccharides are the mostly used biopolymers for developing packaging film and their combination-based composite produced better quality film compared to their single counterpart. The combination of protein and polysaccharides are superior owing to the better physical properties like water resistance, mechanical and barrier properties of the film. The protein/polysaccharide-based composite film showed promising result in active and smart food packaging regime. This work discussed the recent advances on the different types of protein/polysaccharide combinations used for making bio-based sustainable packaging film formulation and further utilized in food packaging applications. The fabrication and properties of various protein/polysaccharide combination are comprehensively discussed. This review also presents the use of the multifunctional composite film in meat, fish, fruits, vegetables, milk products, and bakery products, etc. Developing composite is a promising approach to improve physical properties and practical applicability of packaging film. The low water resistance properties, mechanical performance, and barrier properties limit the real-time use of biopolymer-based packaging film. The combination of protein/polysaccharide can be one of the promising solutions to the biopolymer-based packaging and thus recently many works has been published which is suitable to preserve the shelf life of food as well trace the food spoilage during food storage.

Metallic nanostructures play a vital role in technological advancement, providing exceptional performance and improved adaptability in comparison to their bulk equivalents. Conventional synthesis techniques frequently depend on dangerous reducing agents to transform metal ions into Nanoparticles (NPs), which presents considerable environmental and health issues. In contrast, the approach of green synthesis, which emphasizes the use of non-toxic reagents, has garnered significant interest as a sustainable method for the fabrication of Metallic Nanoparticles (MNPs).

Cinnamaldehyde (CIN) is gaining interest as a highly effective natural antimicrobial agent to extend the shelf life of fruits. However, its inherent instability limits further applications. In this work, a new strategy for the synthesis of HKUST-1 to encapsulate CINs by in situ growth method using copper-ammonia fiber as precursors is proposed.

In this study, composite films were developed by encapsulating cassia oil (CO) with β-cyclodextrin through a microencapsulation technique and incorporating it into a chitosan (CS), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and glycerol matrix. The primary objective of the film was to inhibit bacterial growth on the surface of fresh bananas and extend their shelf life. Characterization methods were employed to evaluate the physical properties and functionality of the composite films.

Background: Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) was modified by a sulfuric and nitric acid mixed system to improve the solubility of the material and the gas selective permeability of the film. SN1 and SN5, synthesized from mixed acid systems (with ratios of nitric acid and sulfuric acid of 1:1 and 1:5, respectively) were chosen because they had comparable nitro groups but differing sulfonyl groups. To investigate the impact of the type and content of sulfonated and nitrated polyether ether ketone (SNPEEK) on the structure and physicochemical properties of the films, SN1/polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and SN5/polyvinyl chloride films were made by adding varying amounts of SN1 and SN5 (0.
