PAN Nanofiber Mat Incorporated with Graphene Oxide and Cellulose Nanocrystals for Potential Food Packaging Applications

Novel nanocomposite architecture: This study developed PAN-based electrospun nanomats incorporating graphene oxide (GO) and cellulose nanocrystals (CNC).
Multifunctional performance: The material is interesting for active and high-performance food packaging since the incorporation of GO offers options for extra features like antibacterial activity, thermal stability.
Potential replacement for traditional packaging: The study offers a route to useful, lightweight, and strong nanofibrous packaging materials that may reduce reliance on traditional packaging technologies.
