Annual Review of Plant Biology, 2009
The development of sustainable, low-carbon, liquid fuels from cellulosic biomass will require advances in many areas of science and engineering. This review describes the major topics of enquiry concerning cellulosic biofuels with an emphasis on those areas of research and development that include research problems of interest to plant biologists.

Thermal Degradation of Cellulose and Cellulosic Substrates
2015This chapter is aimed to thoroughly describe the thermal degradation of cellulose and cellulosic substrates (like cotton and paper), investigating the involved reaction mechanisms. After a brief introduction about the real reasons that motivated the study on cellulose degradation, a first general introduction on cellulose thermal degradation (namely ...

Chemistry, 2001
This article discusses advances in understanding the structural and physicochemical characteristics of suspensions of cellulose crystallites prepared by acid hydrolysis of natural cellulose fibres. Consideration of recent developments in visualization of crystallite ultrastructure may provide clues to suspension behavior.

Science, 1998
Cellulose, polymers of glucose organized into long fibrils, forms the bulk of the world's biomass. But the identity of the enzyme that makes this critical substance has been uncertain. In this week's issue, [ Arioli et al .][1] report the first confirmation that the gene CelA is indeed a cellulose synthase, and Carpita and Vergara, in their research ...

Carbohydrate Research, 1973
Pyrolysis of cellulose under vacuum and atmospheric pressure gave a tar containing various amounts of 1,6-anhydro-β-D-glucopyranose, 1,6-anhydro-β-D-glucofuranose, α- and β-D-glucose, 3-deoxy-D-erythro-hexosulose, oligo- and polysaccharides, and some dehydration products.

Cellulose: Chemistry of Cellulose Derivatization
2012This chapter gives an overview on various possibilities of cellulose functionalization. Particular attention was paid on homogeneous-phase conversions of cellulose in reaction media based on both aprotic-dipolar solvents in combination with salts and ionic liquids. Paths for cellulose esterification via in situ activated carboxylic acids are discussed.

Electrospinning Cellulose and Cellulose Derivatives
Polymer Reviews, 2008Many solvents suitable for wet or dry spinning of cellulose and cellulose derivatives have also been investigated as solvents for electrospinning. Solvents for cellulose are not completely volatile and have required coagulation steps to ensure complete removal of the solvent from electrospun fibers and produce stable fibers.

Publisher Summary Cellulose is a high polymer of β-1,4-linked D-glucose residues. All methods for the isolation, purification, and solubilization of cellulose seem to depolymerize the molecule more or less. However, by improved methods giving a minimum of depolymerization, higher values for the degree of polymerization (DP) are obtained.
