In order to evaluate the potentiality of novel formulations based on starch to be used as agricultural mulch films, native and oxidized corn starch nanocomposites were prepared by extrusion using natural (Bent) and chitosan-modified bentonite (Bent-CS) fillers. The nanocomposite interactions with water were studied by means of moisture content (MC) determination, water solubility (WS), water vapor permeability (WVP), and contact angle (CA). The light transmission spectra were analyzed in order to determine the transparency and radiometric properties of films. Mechanical properties are also included and related with the cryo-fractured surface morphology observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Finally, the antimicrobial action of deve...
