Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Sustainable Chemistry
  • Biotechnology

Background:

  • The demand for sustainable alternatives to fossil-based products is increasing.
  • Current cellulosic and plastic materials require enhanced performance and end-of-life options.
  • Agro-food waste streams represent a valuable source for bio-based materials.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the potential of bio-based functional coatings derived from agro-food waste.
  • To explore their application on cellulosic and plastic substrates.
  • To enable replacement of fossil-based products in key sectors.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing literature on functional bio-based coatings.
  • Focus on raw materials derived from agro-food waste.
  • Analysis of dispersion/application methods and resulting properties.

Main Results:

  • Identified cutin for hydrophobic coatings, chitosan-chitin for antimicrobial properties, and proteins for gas barriers.
  • Demonstrated potential for improving substrate performance (e.g., water, grease, microbial resistance, gas barrier).
  • Highlighted the link between raw material choice, application method, and final coating properties.

Conclusions:

  • Bio-based coatings from agro-food waste offer a sustainable solution for enhancing cellulosic and plastic materials.
  • These coatings can impart desirable properties like hydrophobicity, antimicrobial activity, and gas barrier functions.
  • The development and application of these coatings hold significant potential for sectors including personal care, tableware, and food packaging.
