Current Green Chemistry - Volume 9, Issue 2, 2022

Due to the hazardous effects of chemicals used, Green chemistry replaces the conventional techniques involved in nanotechnology. Green chemistry is a branch of science dealing with microbiology, phytology, and chemical engineering with the development of products by manipulating these three domains. Green synthesis is an interdisciplinary domain that relies on the use of non-toxic, bio-safe reagents, which are eco- Read More

In this review, recent progress on the application of the polyaniline-supported palladium catalysts in different organic transformations focusing on different C-C bond-forming reactions such as Suzuki coupling, Heck reactions, oxidative Heck coupling, Ullmann coupling, Sonogashira coupling, and related chemistry are covered. Effect of catalyst preparation, characteristic of the support and supported palladium species on the outc Read More

Introduction: Deacetylation of cellulose acetate restores hydroxyl groups on the surface of fibers and improves hydrophilicity. From an environmental point of view, the conventional deacetylation process involves alkalinity and large effluent volume. The goal of this work is to introduce a new ecofriendly bio-treatment process. Methods: In this study, cellulose acetate fabrics were bio-treated with laccase enzy Read More

Introduction: Owing to the restoration of hydroxyl groups, cellulose acetate fibers can be dyed with direct dyes. There are some drawbacks in the conventional deacetylation process of cellulose acetate from environmental point of view. Methods: This process involves high temperature, alkalinity and large volume of effluent. The goal of this work is to improve the dyeing properties of cellulose acetate fabric using an eco- Read More
