Woodpulp Crystal Structure and Its Effect on Nitrocellulose Physical Properties

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA088412 | Open PDF

Abstract:

The analysis of cellulose properties as determined by X-ray diffraction is described in this report. Results for several cellulose samples - both pulp and linter - are presented. A preliminary correlation between the measured properties of cellulose with properties of cellulose nitrate prepared therefrom is suggested.
