Food Packaging: The major market for functional additives and barrier coatings 

Food packaging is the largest application of the Functional Additives and Barrier Coatings Market. It is an important segment of the packaging industry. It accounts for more than 60% of the global consumer plastic packaging market. Plastic resins play a major role in food packaging owing to their low cost, mechanical strength, and ease of processing and manufacturing. Functional additives and barrier coatings are added in plastic resins to strengthen the desired physical, mechanical, and barrier properties.

Antioxidant: The fastest-growing type for functional additives 

Antioxidants slow down the oxidation cycle, usually by scavenging free radicals, preventing degradation of the polymer, and retaining the color development, mechanical, and physical properties according to the required standards. Antioxidants improve chemical resistance of the plastics. These are generally used in hydrocarbon polymers such as polypropylene, polyethylene, polystyrene, and ABS. Antioxidant additives find application in food & beverage applications.

Organic liquid coatings: The fastest-growing type for barrier coatings 

Organic liquid coatings provide protection against moisture, oxidation, aroma, and flavor loss, and oil and grease permeation. These coatings are generally combined with plastic resins in duplex and triplex structure. These coatings include ethylene-vinyl alcohol (EVOH) copolymer, polyvinylidene chloride (PVDC), and polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH). Organic liquid coating, including PVDC, provide excellent barrier against oxygen and water vapor in comparison to other coatings. PVDC is used in high-performance packaging films owing to its effective barrier properties. Organic liquid coatings are typically best suited for food and pharmaceutical packaging applications owing to their regulatory compliance or acceptance.
