Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Cellulose is a renewable resource that has a potential to be used as an energy source. However, the availability is limited because of the high stability of the cellulose crystal structures. In this study, we performed molecular dynamics simulation with four typical crystal polymorphs of cellulose ( Iβ, II, IIII and IVI ) and obtained the fundamental information for the control of the cellulose swelling and hydrolysis. The order of the stability of the four crystals under high temperature and pressure conditions was different and the dissociation mechanisms of them were analyzed based on the interactions between chains in the crystal.
