Results and Discussion
Previous work as a student (Apr. 2009 - Sep. 2014 in Ohno Lab.)
Cellulose analysis with ionic liquids as solvents of HPLC
& 1H NMR
I developed High Performance “Ionic Liquid” Chromatography (HPILC), a novel analytical system for cellulose. HPILC is HPLC with ILs as eluents and enables to analyze molecular weight distribution of cellulose. HPILC also revealed the mechanisms of hydrolysis of cellulose in ILs.
I also developed the analytical method for 1H NMR of cellulose dissolved in non-deutrated ILs. This revealed hydrogen bonds between three OH groups of cellulose and ILs.
