Abstract
- A novel and recyclable synthetic method using an ionic liquid, a Green Solvent.
- Ecocomposite materials were synthesized from cellulose (CEL) and chitosan (CS).
- Adding CEL into CS substantially increases tensile strength of the composite.
- The composite is much better adsorbent for cyanotoxins than other materials.
- The composite can be reused because adsorbed microcystin can be desorbed.
