Comparison of mechanical properties of pure cellulose film, obtained from 5 wt% cellulose/EMIMAc solution, cellulose/chitosan B film obtained without cosolvents from 4.5 wt% cellulose/0.5 wt% chitosan/90 wt% EMIMAc solution, and cellulose/chitosan B films, obtained from 4.5 wt% cellulose/0.5 wt% chitosan/90 wt% EMIMAc/5 wt% cosolvent solutions.
