Lactam groups were introduced onto the backbone of hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) to
modify properties, such as solubility in organic solvents and solution viscosity and to …

Sodium cellulose sulfates were prepared in various degrees of substitution (DS) and degree
of polymerization (DP) by directly sulfating cotton and microcrystalline cellulose. Molecular …

The need for biodegradable materials has driven the exploration of natural and biobased
polymers, with cellulose emerging as a promising option due to its abundance and …

In this study, we prepared a novel amino cellulose derivative (benzyl cellulose-g-poly [2-(N,
