An Introduction to Food Grade Nanoemulsions

Part of the book series: Environmental Chemistry for a Sustainable World ((ECSW))

Abstract

Packaging of the food products are the major and unavoidable stage of food supply chain as the better packaging leads to longer durability, shelf life and maintenance of mechanical, physical, chemical and physio-chemical properties of food products. Here in this review, (i) a details of nano-packaging have been discussed; (ii) different forms of nano-packaging systems have been discussed to meet specific requirements; (iii) additionally, the recent trends, future and opportunities of nano-food packaging have been discussed.
