The column wicking technique was applied to estimate the surface free energy of cellulose,
the importance of which is to obtain a real effective capillary radius, Reff, initially from the …

The thin-layer wicking technique was used to determine the surface free energy components
and the surface character of three celluloses (Sigmaccll 101, Sigmacell 20, and Avicel 101) …

Different treatment processes such as alkaline washing, bleaching, and slack-mercer ization
are used to improve the sorption characteristics of cellulose fibers. The differences between …

Generally, grafting alkylated chains onto cellulose backbone modifies its physicochemical
properties strongly, and the variation in the hydrophobicity of the cellulose causes significant …

Surface energy data for samples of microcrystalline cellulose have been obtained using two
techniques: capillary intrusion and inverse gas chromatography. Ten microcrystalline …

In addition to recently Luner and Oh used method for characterizing of the surface free
energy for cellulose ether films, this paper shows the same values however using the …

The effect of the chemical composition of regenerated cellulose solids on surface energy
was studied by inverse gas chromatography (IGC). This was to probe a possible relationship …

Spherical cellulose beads having narrow particle-size distribution were prepared by the
coagulation/regeneration method for small viscose droplets formed by centrifugal force in an …

The objective of this study was to determine the surface free energy components of aqueous-
based cellulose ether films and compare these values with those of other cellulose …

Viscosity measurements of cellulose in SO2-diethylamine-dimethylsulfoxide were studied in
order to examine the applicability of this cellulose solvent system for molecular weight …
