Kinetics of solid-phase carboxymethyllation of cotton and microcrystalline cellulose

摘要

This article discusses comparative investigation of etherification reaction kinetics of cotton and microcrystalline cellulose, in heterogeneous conditions by solid-phase method in the special adiabatic reactor. On the basis of the received results, activation energy, constant of reaction rate, pre-exponential factors and specific thermal effects of carboxymethyllation reactions of cotton and microcrystalline cellulose were determined.
