Homogeneous acetylation of cellulose in 1-allyl-3-methyl-imidazolium chloride(AMIMCl) was carried out. Acetic anhydride and acetyl chloride were used as acetylating agents in the absence and presence of pyridine. The ...
A novel room-temperature ionic liquid (RTIL),1-allyl,3-methylimidazolium chloride ([AMIM]Cl),was synthesized,ch aracterized and used for dissolving cellulose.The solubility of cellulose in [ AMIM]Cl was better tha...
