Standard Test Method for Solubility of Cellulose in Sodium Hydroxide

Importancia y uso:

4.1 The measurement of soluble oxidizable components of cellulose in sodium hydroxide is indicative of the purity of the cellulose sample, since pure cellulose is insoluble in sodium hydroxide. The extracted components are typically hemicelluloses, which are naturally present in the wood. Differences in pulp purity can have a dramatic impact on the processing and properties of the cellulose derivatives produced from the pulp.
