| Abstract: | The supermolecular and fine structures of celluloses obtained on the soda-oxygen digestion of cotton lint under various conditions have been investigated by electron microscopy, IR spectroscopy, and x-radiography. It has been shown that under these conditions there is a weakening of intermolecular hydrogen bonds between the cellulose microfibrils and a loosening of their packing.Tashkent Institute of Chemical Technology.
