This book summarizes recent progress in cellulose chemistry. The
last 10 years have witnessed important developments, because
sustainability is a major concern. Biodegradable cellulose
derivatives, in particular esters and ethers, are employed on a
large scale. The recent developments in cellulose chemistry include
unconventional methods for the synthesis of derivatives,
introduction of novel solvents, e.g. ionic liquids, novel
approaches to regioselective derivatization of cellulose,
preparation of nano-particles and nano-composites for specific
applications. These new developments are discussed comprehensively.
This book is aimed at researchers and professionals working on
cellulose and its derivatives. It fills an important gap in
teaching, because most organic chemistry textbooks concentrate on
the relatively simple chemistry of mono- and disaccharides. The
chemistry and, more importantly, the applications of cellulose are
only concisely mentioned.
This book provides a first comprehensive summary of acylation
methods in a very practical manner. The coverage includes new
developments not yet summarized in book form, and reviews
spectroscopic methods, in particular FTIR- and NMR spectroscopy
including two dimensional methods.
Polysaccharide esters (e.g. cellulose and starch) are among the
first polymeric materials applied commercially. The way of
producing these technically relevant derivatives, mainly the
carboxylic acid esters of C2 to C4 acids, have not been changed
significantly during their history of manufacture. The
investigation of new acylation methods and strategies of analysis
was revived during the last decade by the search for tailored,
biocompatible material for specific fields of application, e.g.,
biotechnology, sensor technique and medicine. Unconventional
solvents were developed for completely homogeneous acylation
reaction applying state of the art techniques of modern organic
chemistry for polysaccharide modification. This book will provide a
first comprehensive summary of acylation methods in a very
practical manner.
Detailed structure analysis is indispensable for the evaluation of
structure-property-relationships. Spectroscopic methods in
particular FTIR- and NMR spectroscopy including two dimensional
methods are of increasing importance.
