Abstract
Collagen/cellulose films were made by the blend solutions of collagen, cellulose in this paper. To begin with, collagen and cellulose was dissolved in 1-allyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([Amim]Cl）. The structure of the blend films was characterized by FTIR and XRD. The effects of weight ratio between the two polymers on light transmittance, tensile strength, elongation at break and water absorption of the film were studied. The results showed that there were strong interactions and good compatibility between collagen and cellulose in the film and the polymers have strongest interactions at the mixing ratio of 5:5. The blend films possess better properties such as mechanical and water absorption properties than those made of single polymer.
