Highly Efficient and Recyclable Catalysts for Cellobiose Hydrolysis: Systematic Comparison of Carbon Nanomaterials Functionalized With Benzyl Sulfonic Acids

Carbon materials such as activated coal, nanotubes, nanofibers, or graphene nanoplatelets were functionalized with sulfonic acid moieties by a diazonium coupling strategy. High acidity was obtained for the majority of the carbon solids except for the carbon nanofibers. The activity of these acidic c...
