The objectives of this work were to develop biodegradable trays from cassava starch, sugarcane fibers and Na-montmorillonite (Na-MMT) using a baking process and to study the effects of these components on the microstructure and physicochemical and mechanical properties of the trays. All formulations resulted in well-shaped trays with densities between 0.1941 and 0.2966 g/cm3. The addition of fibers and Na-MMT resulted in less dense and less rigid trays. As observed in the water sorption isotherms, the increase in the equilibrium moisture content was more pronounced when the samples were stored at RH (relative humidity) above 75%. The foams had high water absorption capacities (>50%) when immersed in water (1 min). The studied processing conditions resulted in good nanoclay dispersion, leading to the formation of an exfoliated structure. The trays developed in this study represent an alternative for the packaging of foods with low water contents.
