A phosphorus-doped carbon material derived from a sodium alginate/phosphoric acid hydrogel as an efficient catalyst for catalytic oxidation of furfural to maleic acid

Abstract

Sodium alginate is biomass-derived polysaccharides. A novel hydrogel (SA-H3PO4) was prepared by taking advantage of the hydrogen bonding interactions between sodium alginate and phosphoric acid. Phosphoric acid molecules are highly...
