ResumoThe paper summarizes different approaches for the dissolution of cellulose and the use of these cellulose solutions for analysis, regeneration, and homogeneous modification of the polymer. Aqueous and non-aqueous solvents, melts, and soluble cellulose intermediates are discussed with the focus on new developments for the shaping and the homogeneous conversion of cellulose. It will be shown that these media open up new paths towards nanostructured regenerated cellulose and tailored cellulose derivatives not accessible via heterogeneous reactions. Moreover, the preparation of conventional cellulose products with new structural features obtainable by conversion in cellulose solvents will be illustrated.
