Abstract | ||||
The use of plastic as food packaging cannot be avoided in social life. Almost the entire food industry in the world uses plastic in its production process. However, the chemicals contained in plastics such as phthalates and BPA can have a negative impact, especially on the environment. One way to reduce plastic packaging is to using edible film instead of plastic packaging. The edible film is one of the advanced materials being developed in Indonesia and included in biodegradable. Thus, research on edible films is urgently needed as a food packaging innovation in the future, especially in the face of the Industrial Revolution Era 5.0. The aim of this research was to perform a bibliometric analysis of edible films using VOSviewer software. The data obtained is the result of a search based on the Scopus database with the keywords "Edible Film" and "Future Packaging" from 2018 to 2022. A total of 1,635 publications were published from around the world with an average of 327 publications per year. This shows that there is a high interest in edible film research from year to year. In Indonesia, the use of edible films as a substitute for plastic is still not optimal, so it is hoped that the use of edible films can have a major impact on the food industry to realize global development in the Industrial Revolution Era 5.0. | ||||
