High cost and high viscosity of ionic liquid restricted its commercial application in pretreatment of lignocellulose. Water and ethanol were used as additive in [EMIM][OAc] to pretreat corn cob at moderate temperature (< 100 °C). It was found that enzyme hydrolysis (EH) sugar yield was increased with the increase of IL content. The largest EH sugar yield of 68.8% was obtained when pure IL was used. However, for [EMIM][OAc]/ethanol, the EH sugar yield as high as 66.9% was gained when the IL content was 80%, which was comparable to that for pure IL pretreatment. In addition, Kamlet–Taft parameter was calculated to characterize the polarity solvency of binary liquid phase, to illustrate the underlying reason for the increase of EH sugar and the lignin removal. Finally, to demonstrate the crystalline and microstructure change after pretreatment, XRD and SEM were performed for the raw materials and the pretreated samples.
