  Application research status of nano cellulose in food industry

  The green method of using coupling agent to immobilize nisin on bio-based carboxylated cellulose nanofibers (CNF) is a green method for making food packaging, which has good antibacterial activity and ensures long-term storage of food. Nano cellulose coating is coated on the inner surface of food packaging or directly on the surface of food materials that need to be preserved. Compared with ordinary coating materials, nano cellulose has a special gas barrier function, which can improve mechanical properties and make It has great potential for development in the field of flexible biological packaging; both microfibrillated cellulose and nano-cellulose crystals are high polymers, with high bonding energy and strong inter-chain attraction. Under low humidity conditions, their voids It is small in size and limited in diffusion, so it has low air permeability, which can further improve food quality and safety, with high efficiency and low cost.
