Crystallinity of Cellulose Fibers as Determined by Acid Hydrolysis

A study of the kinetics of the heterogeneous hydrolysis of cellulose indicates that there are two distinct rates which have been attributed to the rapid hydrolysis of the loose ...

Effect of Grinding on the Crystallinity of Cellulose Fibers, as Indicated by the Acid-Hydrolysis and Other Techniques

A study was made of an effect previously noted, that grinding cotton fibers in a Wiley mill causes a reduction in degree of crystallinity as determined by the acid-hydrolysis me...
