has a wide range of sources. In energy-shortage situation
cellulose based materials have attracted more and more attention. Nano cellulose from plant resources has the characteristics of light weight
high strength and good gas barrier
which makes it widely used in food packaging materials. In this paper
the application of cellulose nanofibers
microcrystalline cellulose and cellulose nanocrystals and their barrier properties
mechanical properties
antibacterial properties and degradability in food packaging materials were reviewed. The effects of nano cellulose on the properties of food packaging materials were summarized. The combination of nano composite materials and multi-layer design has great potential in the field of food packaging materials.
