Researchers developed a green synthesis strategy using ionic liquids to control gold aerogel structure, boosting ...

Ionic liquids provide an alternative to certain solvents in select reactions used to synthesize intermediates and active pharmaceutical ingredients. Although their physical and chemical properties ...

His current interests are in the design of ionic liquids for biomass processing, the chemistry and structure of lignin and cellulose chemistry. He is also Chairman of the board for Liuotin Group Oy, a ...

The Illinois group used a novel approach involving an ionic liquid to catalyze the reaction, greatly reducing the energy required to drive the process. The ionic liquids stabilize the ...

One ongoing theme in the group has been the development of cellulose-dissolving ionic liquids, as a platform for a wide range of applications, e.g. the IONCELL process. The group has strong links to ...
