Polymer based materials have been widely used in food packaging applications due to their flexibility in processing, good sealing properties and transparency. However, most of the polymer-based food packaging materials are poor in their barrier properties which could hinder their effectiveness in maintaining the quality of packed foods. Employing highly prevalent in food processing/packaging environment). These fibers can find potential use as an insert in the package or a functional layer in multi-layer food packaging. Another aspect dealt is the development of LDPE/ TPS blends which can be used as an alternative to LDPE that is commonly used in single or multi-layer food packaging materials. The last part of this chapter gives an overview of thesis organization. sachets, inserts or as films sandwiched between polymer films in multi-layer packaging systems. Polymer composites with antimicrobial functions generally contain metal nanoparticles (like silver, gold and zinc), metal oxides (TiO2, SiO2, MgO and ZnO) and some natural antimicrobial agents 7, 22-24. Broadly, the effectiveness of antimicrobial agents depend on pH, water activity, growth of specific microbes, chemical nature of the antimicrobial agent and temperature 25. 3. Develop LDPE / TPS blends in the weight ratio of 50/50 using two different melt flow rate grades of LDPE and evaluate the morphology, thermal, mechanical and barrier properties of the blends. The objectives 1 and 2 on the synthesis and behavior of electrospun films in a food packaging environment is to utilize its potential high surface areas as compared to the 25.
