Funding: EU/Lombardy Regional Council POR FESR 2014-2020
Duration: 2017-2019
The basic objective of this project (Lombardy Region Call for R&D Cluster Projects) is to reduce the dependence on fossil resources in the flexible packaging sector. Renewable raw materials could help reach this goal allowing to maintain or even improve the properties of conventional materials to ensure compliance with protection and safety law requirements. For this purpose, Nanocrystalpack will explore the possibility to use cellulose nanocrystals (CNC), obtainable from widely available and cheap renewable raw materials, to produce coatings and functional additives for food packaging materials.
