Alternative solvents for green chemistry / Francesca M. Kerton Cambridge : RSC Publishing, 2009 1 online resource (xii, 226 pages) : illustrations RSC green chemistry book series Includes bibliographical references and index Introduction -- "Solvent free" chemistry -- Water -- Supercritical fluids -- Renewable solvents -- Room temperature ionic liquids and eutectic mixtures -- Fluorous solvents and related systems -- Liquid polymers -- Tunable and switchable solvent systems -- Industrial case studies Everyone is becoming more environmentally conscious and therefore, chemical processes are being developed with their environmental burden in mind. This also means that more traditional chemical methods are being replaced with new innovations and this includes new solvents. Solvents are everywhere, but how necessary are they? They are used in most areas including synthetic chemistry, analytical chemistry, pharmaceutical production and processing, the food and flavour industry and the materials and coatings sectors. However, the principles of green chemistry guide us to use less of them, or to u.
