Alternative chemo-enzymatic treatment for homogeneous and heterogeneous acetylation of wood fibers [PDF]
A new chemo-enzymatic treatment is proposed to produce cellulosic fibers suitable for heterogeneous- or homogeneous-phase acetylation. The procedure included enzymatic (laccase–violuric acid) lignin removal from the precursor fibers (unbleached sulfite ...
