Abstract

A packing material, generally in sheet form, is made from a combination of a support sheet and a water-retentive material that is intimately connected to the support sheet. Moisture or exudate originating from a product enclosed by the packing material is absorbed and retained by the water-retentive material without affecting the physical strength of the support sheet or the packaged product. In a preferred embodiment, the support sheet is made of paper or a polymeric material, such as polyethylene, and the water retentive material is formed from polyacrylonitrile, or an acrylonitrile based co-polymer, treated with an alkaline aqueous solution of aliphatic or cycloaliphatic monofunctional or polyfunctional alcohols that have melting points greater than or equal to 110° C. The packaging material is ideal for the packaging of moisture sensitive foods, such as cheese.
