Effect of montmorillonite on morphology, glass transition and crystallinity of the xylitol-plasticized bionanocomposites

- Xylitol is used as a plasticizer in the preparation of extruded starch nanocomposite.
- The non-isothermal crystallization kinetics was studied by the Avrami equation.
- Synchrotron SAXS is carried out to determined the morphology within the material.
