Progress on chemical modification of cellulose in green solvents

Wenjiao Ge et al.

Summary: Cellulose is an excellent candidate for sustainable materials with its good availability, renewability, biodegradability, and biocompatibility. However, its poor solubility in water and common organic solvents restricts chemical modification to heterogeneous conditions or limited systems. Recent advancements in green solvents have enabled more efficient and sustainable chemical modification of cellulose.
