Kinetics and mechanism of green conversion of hemicellulose to functional monosaccharides catalyzed by levulinic acid.

Directed hydrolysis of hemicellulose to produce high-purity derivative sugars offers a green and value-added utilization pathway. This study investigates the catalytic hydrolysis kinetics of hemicellulose using levulinic acid (Lev), focusing on the e…
