REVIEW ON THE REGENERATION, DERIVATION AND DEGRADATION OF CELLULOSE IN IONIC LIQUID SYSTEM

With increasing conflict between resources and environment, the High-valuable applications of cellulose in Ionic Liquids (IL) have been attracted increasing attention.In this paper, the derivation and degradation reaction of cellulose in IL was reviewed.First, starting from the dissolution and regeneration of cellulose in ionic liquids, which was the basis of the reactions of cellulose in ionic liquids.Secondly, a set of cellulose derivatives in ionic liquids were introduced, including the cellulose derivative products and regularity of the reaction.Furthermore, the research progress of cellulose degradation reactions in ionic liquids were reviewed.Finally, the defects and the direction of future efforts in the fields of the derivatives and degradation of cellulose in ionic liquids were also discussed.
