When being incorporated in glycerol-plasticized soy protein plastics, citric acid-modified starch nanoparticles displayed dramatic reinforcing effect. The resulted nanocomposite plastics exhibited improvement in mechanical performance. Also, the water uptake decreased, indicating an increase of water resistance. The modified starch nanoparticles had a good compatibility with soy protein matrix. Possessing a relative hydrophobic surface, the filler would prefer to interact with protein-rich domains in glycerol-plasticized soy protein. The work provided a green approach of biodegradable materials based on naturally occurring biopolymers.
