Abstract
⺠PLA nanocomposites reinforced with cellulose were developed for packaging applications. ⺠The effect of cellulose modification and percentage in PLA nanocomposites was investigated. ⺠Surfactant-modified nanocrystals favour the cellulose dispersion in the PLA. ⺠Reductions of water permeability and good oxygen barrier properties were obtained. ⺠The overall migration level of PLA nanocomposites was below the normative limits.
