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 …

The surface free energy parameters of ethylcellulose (EC) films were determined using the
Lifshitz–van der Waals/acid–base approach and the influence of plasticizers on their surface …

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) …

Surface (air− fluid) and interfacial (fluid− fluid) tensions of coexisting isotropic and
anisotropic aqueous suspensions of microcrystalline cellulose have been investigated as a …

The dispersive component of the surface free energy, the nondispersive interaction, with
polar liquids were determined for cellulose, cellulose acetate and cellulose grafted with alkyl …

Cellulose is the most abundant natural polymer, and has been used by mankind for
centuries. It is the main structural component of plant cell walls, as has been shown by the …

The forces acting between cellulose surfaces have been studied using the interferometric
surface force apparatus. The cellulose surfaces were prepared by Langmuir-Blodgett …

Interfacial properties of aqueous solutions of methyl and hydroxypropyl methyl ethers of
cellulose are important in foam and emulsion stability, detergency and many other …

Some surface tension properties of aqueous solutions of eight well characterized nonionic
cellulose derivatives are presented. The measurements of surface tension have been …

The purpose of this work was to better understand the effect polyelectrolyte complexes have
on the interactions in cellulosic systems. The surface forces between cellulose spheres …
