Cellulose: A Review of Water Interactions, Applications in Composites, and Water Treatment

Chemical Reviews, 2023
Cellulose is known to interact well with water, but is insoluble in it. Many polysaccharides such as cellulose are known to have significant hydrogen bond networks joining the molecular chains, and yet they are recalcitrant to aqueous solvents.

Integrated Approach for Bioethanol and Paper Production using Populus deltoides Wood Biomass: An Experimental Study

AgroEnvironmental Sustainability, 2023
Lignocellulosic materials contain two major sugar macromolecules, cellulose and hemicellulose, and polyphenolic lignin. During pulping, lignin and hemicellulose are broken down into smaller molecules such as organic acids, and removed in the black ...
