Recycling and/or recovery of solvent are of important aim in the area of environment or cost. Deep eutectic solvents (DES’s) have been widely employed in different research or industrial area. Ammonium alum: urea DES has been researched for possible applications therefore; recovery of this DES is attempted in this paper. Ammonium alum: urea DES was separated to its constituents by crystallization of ammonium alum from a solution containing cellulose. Urea was obtained by evaporation. The crystallization occurs by adding water which breaks the hydrogen bonding of DES. Water was added in a 1.25:1 volume ratio and the resulting crystals and solid materials were examined with ATR-IR and X-Ray Diffraction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
