Effect of the molecular structure of lignin-based polyoxyethylene ether (EHL–PEG) on enzymatic hydrolysis of Avicel and corn stover was investigated. With the increase of PEG contents and molecular weight of EHL–PEG, glucose yield of corn stover increased. EHL–PEG enhanced enzymatic hydrolysis of corn stover significantly at buffer pH 4.8–5.5. Glucose yield of corn stover at 20% solid content increased from 32.8% to 63.8% by adding EHL–PEG, while that with PEG4600 was 54.2%. Effect of EHL–PEG on enzymatic hydrolysis kinetics of cellulose film was studied by quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). An enhancing mechanism of EHL–PEG on enzymatic hydrolysis kinetics of cellulose was proposed. Cellulase aggregates dispersed by EHL–PEG excavated extensive cavities into the surface of cellulose film, making the film become more loose and exposed. After the maximum enzymatic hydrolysis rate, the film was mainly peeled off layer by layer until equilibrium.
