Rapid dissolution of cellulose in AlCl3/ZnCl2 aqueous system at room temperature and its versatile adaptability in functional materials

Herein, this is the first report on the dissolution of cellulose at room temperature (R.T.) by using the AlCl3/ZnCl2·4H2O solvent system. Cellulose with broad degrees of polymerization (DP), even those...
