## Abstract Nanocomposite materials were obtained using sorbitol plasticized waxy maize starch as matrix and tunicin whiskers as the reinforcement. The effect of filler load (0โ25 wt % whiskers) and the relative humidity levels (0โ98%) on the mechanical behavior of the films are discussed for linea
