Abstract

Nanotechnology is one of the emerging technologies that is used in various fields. This technique promises significant changes in the industry and health by improving the quality level. Today, one of the industries that plays a major role in the health of society is the packaging industry, and in a short period of time, it has made significant progress with the use of nanotechnology. In this article, the relationship between nanotechnology and packaging is explained with the help of data obtained from reliable scientific databases such as Science Direct, PubMed, and Researchgate. The findings showed that nanotechnology can be used to improve health, gain wealth, improve the quality level of products, and according to all the mentioned cases, for a better life. However, food nanopackaging is still a relatively unknown field of nanoscience and food science that requires more extensive research.
