A FIBER SUITABLE FOR PACKAGING AND STORING PLANT PRODUCE

摘要

The present disclosure relates to a fiber suitable for packaging. The fiber of the present disclosure comprises a photocatalyst bonded to it by means of a first functional group generated by a surface modifying agent and optionally, a second functional group generated by a silicon containing linker. The chemical bonding between the fiber and the photocatalyst imparts durability and wash ability to the fiber. A packaging material prepared using the fiber of the present disclosure can effectively be used for the storage of plant produce.
