Abstract: Fast liquefaction of bagasse was conducted in ethylene carbonate in the presence of sulfuric acid as catalyst in order to convert bagasse into product for manufacturing epoxy resin adhesive. Effects of temperature, liquid ratio and catalyst dosage for the liquefaction were investigated. Liquefaction products were characterized. Experiments indicated that bagasse can be liquefied 97% in approximately 10-20 min. The hydroxyl number of the liquefied product is in the range of 220-330 mg/g.

Key words: bagasse, liquefaction, ethylene carbonate
