“New products from polysaccharides – simple chemistry with great effect”

Abstract:
While the commercial chemistry of polysaccharides is limited due to the low reactivity of the heterogeneous reactions, homogeneous chemistry opens paths for the design of novel and highly engineered structures. Thus, there is a need to find efficient solvents for cellulose that will be discussed to some extent. However, to design novel functional materials, not only homogeneous reactions applying special solvents but also the conversion of activated and organo-soluble polysaccharide derivatives are in the center of recent interest….
