Cotton cellulose with different % NaOH treatments and graft copolymers of cellulose prepared with vinyl acetate (AV) and methyl acrylate (MA), and Ce(IV) ion as an initiator were submitted to biodegradation conditions. Cellulose is a biopolymer consisting solely of glucose units, and, consequently,
A mechanism for the thermal degradation of cellulose triacetate in vacuo is proposed, having as its principal features deacetylation in the polymer chain and chain-scission at the 1,4glycosidic linkages between pyranose rings. The former process results in formation of acetic acid, the latter in the
