Unveiling Modifications of Biomass Polysaccharides during Thermal Treatment in Cholinium Chloride : Lactic Acid Deep Eutectic Solvent
Eduarda S. Morais,André M. da Costa Lopes,Mara G. Freire,Carmen S. R. Freire,Armando J. D. Silvestre +4 more
TL;DR: The obtained data revealed that [Ch]Cl:LA (1:10) has a negative impact on the polysaccharides fractions at prolonged treatments (>4 h), resulting on substantial modifications including the esterification of cellulose with lactic acid, shortening of fibers length, fibers agglomeration and side reactions of the hemicelluloses fraction.
