Résumé
Food packaging has become more demanding in order to offer the consumer good quality foods with high standards such as material performance and extended shelf life. Developments such as smart packaging that could bring active compounds, outstanding gas/vapor barrier properties, and also biodegradability to reduce plastic waste disposal represent an additional asset in innovative food packaging. Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are a natural nanomaterial derived from cellulose that has demonstrated stiffness and lightness properties. Because of their nanosized dimensions, CNCs add tortuosity, allowing limited access to molecules passing through materials into which they are embedded, as well as improving dispersion and modification for active compounds. The objective of this article is to highlight the most important characteristics of CNCs and their potential applications in food packaging.
