Petroleum based polymers as food packaging materials are not sustainable and also cause environmental problems. Therefore, biodegradable and biobased polymers have been developed in recent year. Biobased polymers can be obtained by microbiological and biotechnological methods or produced from food industry wastes or the other sources in nature. Starch, chitin, pectin and protein based biodegradable polymer sources could be an alternative to reduce packaging waste and environmental problems. This paper reviews the production methods, mechanical, barrier, thermal and antimicrobial properties of polysaccharide and protein based biodegradable polymers to project their potential for sustainable food packaging.
