Design and information interaction study of bio-based materials in the packaging field

Abstract

Based on the rapid and widespread application of fossil-based resources and global transportation, product packaging is crowding corners all around the world. Therefore, to meet modern needs, achieving a balance between intelligent interaction and the environmentally friendly sustainability and safety of materials has become an important consideration in contemporary packaging research. Given the environmental benefits of bio-based materials, this review aims to explore the utility of biomaterials in the packaging realm, particularly those derived from nature. By analyzing the characteristics of biomaterials, this review investigates the advantages and challenges of bio-based materials in packaging design, delves into the construction of their information interaction functions, and discusses their development potential in light of their renewable and degradable closed-loop properties. Meanwhile, from the expansion of material innovation, enhanced functionalities and interactive intelligence, scalability and cost efficiency, and cross-industry circular economy and collaboration, we offer some perspective in this review to provide theoretical insights for the sustainable development of intelligent packaging materials.
