The thermotropic mesomorphism of some cellulose derivatives (CD) based on the (2-hydroxypropyl)cellulose (HPC) was investigated. Three types of derivatives: two esters (PPC, HxPC) and cyanoethyl derivative (CEPC) were prepared. The X-ray diffraction patterns of CDs were compared with the differentia

โฆ Synopsis
The melt spinning of two thermotropic cellulose derivatives-trimethyl silyl cellulose and phenyl acetoxy cellulose-is described in this article. Removal of the substituents was facile, rapid, and essentially complete. Both the melt-spun and regenerated fibers had banded textures typical of fibers spun from a liquid crystalline phase. The regenerated cellulose fibers had high strengths and moduli compared to viscose rayon and Lyocel cellulose fibers.
