Effect of ball milling on the catalytic conversion of cellulose to levulinic acid

The yield of levulinic acid from cellulose is very low because of a strong network of intera- and intermolecular hydrogen bonding. Ball milling cause significant decrease in the cellulose crystalinity and thus increase the production of levulinic acid (LA) by using Aluminum Chloride (AlCl3) as a cat...
