Ionic liquid for dissolving cellulose [Please consult for samples]

Effective utilization of biomass resources is possible! Contributes to labor-saving, improved safety, and reduced environmental impact in the spinning process of regenerated cellulose fibers!

Our company synthesizes a wide variety of ionic liquids for diverse applications. Among these, ionic liquids that dissolve cellulose have gained attention in recent years, as they are expected to contribute to the production of biomass fuels and materials, as well as to the streamlining, safety enhancement, and environmental impact reduction of cellulose material manufacturing processes, such as cellulose fibers and films. Additionally, the behavior and physical properties of cellulose after dissolution vary depending on the type of ionic liquid used, leading to expectations for various applications. In our company, we handle a variety of ionic liquids for cellulose dissolution, and we can also customize the structure of the ionic liquids (cations and anions) according to customer requests. Please feel free to download the materials and contact us.
