This article explores the development of flexible food-packaging materials based on cellulose acetate and chitosan using air-assisted solution spraying, a scalable manufacturing technique that enables rapid film formation. The study examines how formulation and processing conditions influence the structure, surface characteristics, mechanical performance, moisture barrier properties, and antimicrobial behavior of cellulose acetate-based films.

This review examines the potential of cellulose-based composites reinforced with hydroxyapatite (HA) as sustainable alternatives to conventional plastic food packaging. The article explores the environmental and food safety challenges associated with petroleum-based packaging and evaluates how cellulose, a renewable and biodegradable material, can be enhanced through the addition of HA.

This article investigates a bio-based food packaging system that combines pure cellulose with cellulose acetate and an active antimicrobial coating. The study focuses on developing a compostable packaging material for ready-to-eat tomato pasta by incorporating 4-hydroxybenzoate into layered double hydroxides, which act as carriers for controlled release.
