METHOD FOR CONVERSION OF CARBOHYDRATE POLYMERS TO CHEMICAL PRODUCTS USING CERIUM OXIDE CATALYST
Methods are described for conversion of carbohydrate polymers, including cellulose, that yield monosaccharide products, including glucose. Catalyst compositions that include functionalized metal/metal oxide clusters on cerium oxide nanostructures are described which provides product yields, e.g., gr...

Zusammenfassung: | Methods are described for conversion of carbohydrate polymers, including cellulose, that yield monosaccharide products, including glucose. Catalyst compositions that include functionalized metal/metal oxide clusters on cerium oxide nanostructures are described which provides product yields, e.g., greater that 50% in a single step process. |
