Enzymatic Catalysis in Melted Polymer as Green and Reusable Solvent
In this study the first example of enzymatic catalysis in melted polymer, Polywax, at 90 A degrees C was demonstrated by lipase-catalyzed synthesis of cinnamyl laurate. This study shows that Polywax is a promising green and reusable polymer solvent for enzymatic catalysis. An enzymatic catalysis was achieved in the melted polymer, Polywax, which serves as a green and reusable solvent. . [GRAPHICS] .
