Abstract
Data regarding the physico-chemical attributes of packaging
materials are prerequisites for selecting proper packaging materials
to design a package profile for any foodstuff to obtain the desired
shelf-life in a packaged condition during its storage and distribution.
A variety of indigenously manufactured flexible plastic films
generally used in food packaging such as low and high density
polyethylenes, PVC, polystyrene, different types of cellulose based
materials such as greaseproof paper,glassine, kraft, regenerated cellulose
films and aluminium foil laminates obtained from manufacturing
and converting industries were evaluated for their physicochemicalproperties
such os water vapour transmission rate (WVTR),
tensile and bursting strengths, tearing resistance, and elongation.
