“…As the necessity of environmentally benign processes has grown, attention has focusedo ne asily separables olid catalysts for converting cellulose, [6,8,12,13] such as ion-exchange resins, [14] sulfonated carbon materials, [15,16] sulfonatedc arbon-silica nanocomposites, [17] weakly acidic amorphous carbons, [18,19] az eolite-templated carbon, [20] graphene oxide, [21] metal oxides, [22] and supported metal catalysts. [15,17,[24][25][26][27] Although amorphous cellulose can be more easily decomposed into oligosaccharides compared to crystalline cellulose, [28,29] the poor affinity between cellulose and mostc atalysts needs to be overcome.
