High pressure pre-treatments promote higher rate and degree of enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The effect of high pressure (HP) pre-treatments on the subsequent enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose from bleached kraft Eucalyptus globulus pulp by cellulase from Tricoderma viride was evaluated. Pressure pre-treatments of 300 and 400 MPa during 5–45 min,

A Simple Regeneration Process Using a CO2‐Switchable‐Polarity Solvent for Cellulose Hydrogels

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
The effect of transformation of the anion chemical structure on cellulose solubility by flowing CO2 gas into aqueous pyrrolidinium hydroxide solutions was investigated. The changes in anion structure allowed for the modulation of cellulose solubility in aqueous pyrrolidinium hydroxide solutions, thus establishing a simple and safe cellulose ...

Xylose Acetals ‐ a New Class of Sustainable Solvents and Their Application in Enzymatic Polycondensation

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
Novel organic solvents with an unmodified carbohydrate core were synthesised both from D‐xylose and directly from biomass and were successfully used as reaction media for lipase biocatalysts to synthesise aliphatic and aromatic polyesters. Abstract The use of organic solvents in academic research and industry applications is facing increasing ...

Copper‐Based Conductive Nanoinks: Scalable Synthesis via Continuous‐Flow Microwave‐Assisted Polyol Process

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Microwave‐assisted polyol synthesis in continuous flow produces metallic Cu nanoparticles, using ethylene glycol as solvent and reducing agent, lignin to stabilize the colloid and prevent oxidation, and metal‐seeds for particle size control. Metallic copper nanoparticles are a promising alternative to gold and silver in printed electronics due to their
