Abstract
5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is a biomass-based chemical platform that can undergo many feasible reactions. One of the most important reactions is the oxidation to 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA), which is the monomer for bioplastic production. In this work, the radiation method was used to investigate the conversion of HMF in both aqueous (DI) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solutions. The effects of media solvents, atmospheric gases, HMF concentrations, additive bases, and absorbed doses of gamma radiation were studied. The results showed that the media solvent played a crucial role in HMF conversion under gamma irradiation. At 30 kGy, the HMF conversions in DI and DMSO were 92.1 and 24.1%, respectively, and the oxidation products were only found in the irradiated samples under DMSO. The HMF conversion and oxidation product formation increased with the gamma radiation dose. Moreover, it was found that FDCA stability toward gamma irradiation is highly sensitive in aqueous solution but relatively stable in DMSO. The results implied the alternative promising choice of radiation method compared with traditional methods. To join the bridge, the use of a mixture solvent DI/DMSO seems considerable in the future.
期刊介绍:
Open Chemistry is a peer-reviewed, open access journal that publishes original research, reviews and short communications in the fields of chemistry in an ongoing way. The central goal is to provide a hub for researchers working across all subjects to present their discoveries, and to be a forum for the discussion of the important issues in the field. The journal is the premier source for cutting edge research in fundamental chemistry and it provides high quality peer review services for its authors across the world. Moreover, it allows for libraries everywhere to avoid subscribing to multiple local publications, and to receive instead all the necessary chemistry research from a single source available to the entire scientific community.
