Experimental and modeling studies on the acid-catalyzed conversion of inulin to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural in water
(2016-08-31)
Inulin is considered as an attractive feed for the synthesis of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF),
an important biobased platform chemical with high application potential. We here report a
systematic study to optimize the ...
Experimental and Modeling Studies on the Conversion of Inulin to 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural Using Metal Salts in Water
(2016-08-31)
Inulin, a plant polysaccharide consisting of mainly D-fructose units, is considered
an interesting feed for 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), a top 12 bio-based chemical. We
here report an exploratory experimental study on ...
Experimental and modelling studies on the uncatalysed thermal conversion of inulin to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural and levulinic acid
(2016-08-31)
Background: 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), an important biobased platform chemical, is accessible by the acid
catalysed conversion of biopolymers containing hexoses (cellulose, starch, inulin) and monomeric sugars ...
