摘要
Hydrothermal combined alkaline method was conducted to improve the yield of xylan from cotton stalk in this study. The extraction process was optimized by single factor and orthogonal experiments. The maximum yield of recovered xylan was 67.75 +/- 0.27% obtaining from hydrothermal extraction of 170 degrees C, 60 min, 1:10 and alkaline extraction with 4% alkali at 65 degrees C for 2 h with S/L of 1:10. The physic-chemical properties of water-soluble xylan (X-water) and alkali-soluble xylan (X-alkali) were determined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Gel permeation chromatography, thermogravimetric analysis and 2D nuclear magnetic resonance (2D NMR). The observed xylan was composed of (1 -> 4)-beta-D-xylp as main chain, beta-glycosidic bond, and 4-O-methyl-beta-D-glucur-onic acid as branch chain. X-alkali also contains alpha-L-arabinose side chains. And the molecular weight of X-alkali was higher than that of X-water, indicating that alkali pretreatment had a positive protective effect on xylan structure compared with hydrothermal pretreatment. The proposed combined pretreatment method has established a reliable xylan separation method, which has high industrial application feasibility.
