Journal Article
SKILLEN, N., WELGAMAGE, A., ROBERTSON, P.K.J., IRVINE, J.T.S. and LAWTON, L.A. 2023. Photocatalytic conversion of cellulose into C5 oligosaccharides. Journal of physics: energy [online], 6(1), article number 015002. Available from: https://doi.org/10.1088/2515-7655/ad04f1

Cellulose is made up of linear polymers of glucose monomers that could be a crucial source for valuable chemicals and sustainable liquid fuels. Cellulose is however, very stable and its conversion to a useful fuel or platform chemical products remain... Read More about Photocatalytic conversion of cellulose into C5 oligosaccharides..
