Biopolymer-Based Composite Materials Prepared Using Ionic Liquids.

This article summarizes the processes for preparing biopolymer-based composite materials using ionic liquids. The processes include biopolymer dissolution using ionic liquids, regeneration of the biopolymer by an anti-solvent, formation of shapes, and drying of the regenerated biopolymer. In particular, the preparation and applications of biopolymer blend-based composite materials containing two or more biopolymers are addressed. PMID: 30242432 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
