TL;DR: Polarization study suggests that the studied compounds are mixed-type but exhibited predominantly cathodic inhibitive effect, and adsorption of these compounds on mild steel surface obeyed the Langmuir adsorptive isotherm.

Homogeneous catalysis for the production of low-volume, high-value chemicals from biomass
TL;DR: In this article, the use of homogeneous catalysis to convert cellulosics into low-volume, high-value chemicals that are currently derived from crude oil has been studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Road to Biorenewables: Carbohydrates to Commodity Chemicals
TL;DR: In this paper, a cellulase enzyme cocktail is used to catalyze the hydrolysis of the polysaccharides into their constituent sugars, followed by selective conversion of the carbohydrates into commodity chemicals using a variety of sustainable bio-and chemocatalytic methodologies.
