Abstract

Microwaves have been reported to be effective as a technique for promoting dissolution of cellulose in ionic liquids.

However, the mechanism for promoting solubilization of cellulose by microwaves is not fully understood. In this study, the solubilization behavior of cellulose was analyzed kinetically under precise microwave irradiation conditions.

Furthermore, the dielectric properties depending on the cations and anions that make up the ionic liquid were investigated by measuring the complex dielectric constant of the ionic liquids, and the mechanism by which solubilization was accelerated by microwaves was discussed.
