Functional Polymers in Food Science: From Technology to Biology, Volume 1: Food Packaging
G. Cirillo
Polymers are an important part in everyday life; products made from polymers range from sophisticated articles, such as biomaterials, to aerospace materials. One of the reasons for the great popularity exhibited by polymers is their ease of processing. Polymer properties can be tailored to meet specific needs by varying the "atomic composition" of the repeat structure, by varying molecular weight and by the incorporation (via covalent and non-covalent interactions) of an enormous range of compounds to impart specific activities.
In food science, the use of polymeric materials is widely explored, from both an engineering and a nutraceutical point of view. ... Read more
