Abstract

The use of carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) in intelligent packaging (IntPack) represents a significant advancement in addressing food safety, quality, and shelf-life concerns. CNMs like carbon nanotubes, graphene, fullerenes, and carbon dots possess exceptional properties, making them well-suited for improving packaging materials. These NMs can improve barrier properties, mechanical performance, and incorporate intelligent functionalities like sensing, indicating, and controlled release systems. IntPack systems utilizing CNMs can monitor and respond to environmental changes, providing real-time information on food condition, thus enhancing protection and communication throughout the supply chain. Although the benefits are promising, issues like potential toxicity, environmental effects, and regulatory requirements must be tackled to ensure safe and effective implementation. Future research should focus on scalable production methods, multifunctional hybrid systems, and integration with Internet of Things technologies to fully realize the potential of CNMs in food IntPack.

基于碳纳米材料的食品智能包装传感器

碳纳米材料（cnm）在智能包装（IntPack）中的使用代表了解决食品安全、质量和保质期问题的重大进步。碳纳米管、石墨烯、富勒烯和碳点等cnm具有特殊的性能，使它们非常适合改进包装材料。这些NMs可以改善屏障性能、机械性能，并结合智能功能，如传感、指示和控制释放系统。利用CNMs的IntPack系统可以监测和响应环境变化，提供有关食品状况的实时信息，从而加强整个供应链的保护和沟通。虽然好处很有希望，但必须解决潜在毒性、环境影响和监管要求等问题，以确保安全有效地实施。未来的研究应侧重于可扩展的生产方法、多功能混合系统以及与物联网技术的集成，以充分发挥CNMs在食品IntPack中的潜力。

期刊介绍： Industrial Crops and Products is an International Journal publishing academic and industrial research on industrial (defined as non-food/non-feed) crops and products. Papers concern both crop-oriented and bio-based materials from crops-oriented research, and should be of interest to an international audience, hypothesis driven, and where comparisons are made statistics performed.
