This document discusses intelligent packaging and functional inks for intelligent packaging. It describes how intelligent packaging uses indicators, sensors, and data carriers like 2D barcodes and RFID to monitor products and provide information. It provides examples of sensors that detect gases and biosensors, as well as different types of indicators for freshness, time-temperature exposure, and critical temperatures. The document also discusses printed electronics, functional inks, and examples of inks that are conductive, semiconductive, dielectric, and can change color for applications like packaging authentication and product tracking.
