Thesis Abstract

**Abstract
** The food industry continually seeks innovative solutions for enhancing food preservation and extending shelf life. In response to this need, this thesis focuses on the development of a novel food packaging material with advanced preservation properties. The objective of this research is to address the limitations of traditional packaging materials and explore new avenues for improving food preservation techniques. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the research topic, outlining the background of the study, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure of the thesis, and key definitions. The chapter sets the foundation for understanding the importance of developing a new food packaging material with enhanced preservation capabilities. Chapter 2 presents a comprehensive literature review that examines existing studies on food packaging materials, preservation techniques, and innovative technologies in the food industry. The review covers ten key areas of research, providing a thorough analysis of the current state of the field and identifying gaps that this research aims to address. In Chapter 3, the research methodology is outlined with detailed descriptions of the experimental design, materials and methods used for developing the novel food packaging material, data collection procedures, and analysis techniques. The chapter includes eight sub-sections that highlight the systematic approach taken to achieve the research objectives. Chapter 4 delves into the discussion of findings obtained from the research experiments. The results are analyzed and interpreted to evaluate the effectiveness of the novel food packaging material in enhancing food preservation properties. This chapter provides a critical analysis of the data and explores the implications of the findings for the food industry. Finally, Chapter 5 presents the conclusion and summary of the thesis. The key findings are summarized, and the implications of the research are discussed in the context of future developments in food packaging technology. Recommendations for further research and practical applications of the novel food packaging material are also provided. In conclusion, the research on the development of a novel food packaging material with enhanced preservation properties offers valuable insights into improving food preservation techniques. The findings of this study contribute to the ongoing efforts to enhance food safety, reduce food waste, and meet the evolving demands of the food industry.
