Reaction behavior of wood in an ionic liquid, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride

In order to elucidate the reaction behavior of cellulose component in bagasse, the homogeneous phthalation of bagasse was investigated comparatively with the isolated cellulose in 1-allyl-3-methylimidazium chloride (AmimCl) with phthalic anhydride (PA) at the dosage of 10–50 mmol/g. The phthalation degrees of bagasse and the isolated cellulose were in the range of 5.66% to 22.71% and 11.61% to 44.11%, respectively. A phthalation degree increase of cellulose was proportional to phthalic anhydride dosage due to its regular macromolecular structure and followed the equationyPDI=0.004x-0.02. FT-IR and 2D HSQC NMR analyses confirmed the attachment of phthaloyl group. The phthalation reactivity of the three hydroxyls in the isolated cellulose followed the order of C-6 > C-2 > C-3, and the more selective phthalation to C-6 position was found in the cellulose component in bagasse. These results provide detailed understanding of the homogenous modification mechanism of lignocellulose.

Film Method

The general goal of this research is to clarify mechanisms of solid state reactions at the atomic level as a step in the rationalization of macroscopic reaction behavior in solids. A study of intermetallic alloy formation resulting from interdiffusion of metals in thin films can be made by HREM. In this work, reactions between Pt and Sn in thin films are studied to elucidate mechanisms for structural and compositional changes during the interdiffusion process.Thin films of Pt and Sn used in this study were prepared by the two-film method introduced by Shiojiri. Few hundred angstroms of Pt were vacuum-deposited onto holey carbon films mounted on TEM grids. Sn films with an average thickness of 200Å were created by evaporation at rates of 15-30 Å/sec onto air-cleaved KBr substrates. The Sn films were wet-stripped and collected on the holey Pt grids. Figure 1 shows a cross-section schematic of a Pt-Sn couple. While this two-film arrangement did not allow observations of the actual reaction interface, microtomy was used to produce cross-sections.
