Lewis acid-diol deep eutectic solvents for structurally retained lignin fractionation and corn stover saccharification.
Lewis acid-diol-based deep eutectic solvents (DESs) were constructed for technical lignin dissolution and corn stover (CS) fractionation. The DESs showed high dissolution capacities toward kraft lignin, enzymatic hydrolysis lignin and alkaline lignin with maximum solubilities of 58.4 wt%, 78.8 wt% and 45.5 wt%, respect...
