METHODS OF INCREASING THE SENSITIVITY AND REACTIVITY IN THE CHEMICAL PROCESSING OF CELLULOSE SAMPLES BASED ON FIBER WASTE OF COTTON GAINING ENTERPRISES

During chemical treatment of cellulose samples based on fibrous waste from cotton gins (FWCG), depending on the chemical composition of the cellulose, related preparations often react differently, esterify at different rates, and yield products of different quality. This raises the question of the reactivity of cellulose. In cellulose preparations with non-uniform reactivity, the fibers react to different degrees during esterification, resulting in fibers in the resulting product having different solubility.
