Moreover, PVA-based films and coatings play a pivotal role in extending the shelf life of food products. These films act as effective moisture barriers, preventing moisture ingress and preserving the freshness of perishable items. The controlled release of moisture also contributes to the prevention of food spoilage, thus reducing food wastage. This aspect aligns closely with global efforts to reduce food waste and promote sustainable practices within the food industry. In addition to its role in food preservation, PVA is preferred in food packaging for its food-grade status and non-toxic nature.
