Over the past decade, deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have been touted as promising reagents in biomass valorization. This study focused on the novel utilization of type II choline chloride (ChCl)-based DESs by integrating group II metal chloride hexahydrate, namely, calcium chloride hexahydrate (CaCl...
