Journal ArticleDOI

Thermal behavior of cellulose acetate produced from homogeneous acetylation of bacterial cellulose

TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that the formation of a heterogeneous structure for CA samples submitted to a short acetylation time can change the thermal behavior of the CA samples.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and characterization of methylcellulose from sugar cane bagasse cellulose

TL;DR: In this paper, the infrared spectra of the cellulose and of the methylcellulose were analyzed and the effect of using toluene and acetone during the synthesis was studied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and characterization of cellulose acetate produced from recycled newspaper

TL;DR: In this article, the viability of recycling newspaper for producing cellulose acetate was tested, and it was shown that cellulose diacetate can be produced from a homogeneous acetylation, and then characterized by FTIR, DSC and TGA.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of methylcellulose produced from sugar cane bagasse cellulose: Crystallinity and thermal properties

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used FTIR, WAXD, DTA and TGA techniques to characterize methylcellulose produced from sugar cane bagasse and two samples were synthesized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimization of sugarcane bagasse cellulose acetylation

TL;DR: In this article, an optimization process of the acetylation reaction of sugarcane bagasse cellulose was performed, which was carried out varying acetic acid, acetic anhydride and catalyst volume, as well as reaction and activation times.
