EFB was pretreated with the LTTMs under different duration of pretreatment which enabled various degrees of alteration to their structure. The TG-DTG curves showed that LTTMs pretreatment on EFB shifted the temperature and rate of decomposition to higher values. The EFB pretreated with sucrose and choline chloride-based LTTMs had attained the highest mass loss of volatile matter (78.69 and 75.71) after 18 h of pretreatment. For monosodium glutamate-based LTTMs, the 24 h pretreated EFB had achieved the maximum mass loss (76.1). Based on the Coats-Redfern integral method, the LTTMs pretreatment led to an increase in activation energy of the thermal decomposition of EFB from 80.00 to 82.82�94.80 kJ/mol. The activation energy was mainly affected by the demineralization and alteration in cellulose crystallinity after LTTMs pretreatment. © 2018 Elsevier Ltd date: 2018 publisher: Elsevier Ltd official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85041638407&doi=10.1016%2fj.biortech.2018.01.132&partnerID=40&md5=e78a5ef6c36097a0d82f885987a16c4b id_number: 10.1016/j.biortech.2018.01.132 full_text_status: none publication: Bioresource Technology volume: 255 pagerange: 189-197 refereed: TRUE issn: 09608524 citation: Yiin, C.L. and Yusup, S. and Quitain, A.T. and Uemura, Y. and Sasaki, M. and Kida, T.
