A new kind of blend film was made by mixing the solutions of Collagen, konjac glucommnnan (KGM), and sodium alginate. The structure of the blend film was characterized by FTIR, XRD, atomic absorption spectrophotometer, and SEM, respectively. The effects of weight ratio between the polymers on light transmittance, tensile strength, elongation at break, water permeability, and water absorption of the film were studied. The results showed that there were strong interactions and good compatibility between collagen, KGM, and sodium alginate in the film. The film possesses good mechanical properties. Therefore, it can be applied in biomedicine as a new type of biomaterial. (c) 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
