Woodpulp Crystal Structure and Its Effect on Nitrocellulose Physical Properties

Abstract

The analysis of cellulose properties as determined by X-ray diffraction is described in this report. Results for several cellulose samples - both pulp and linter - are presented. A preliminary correlation between the measured properties of cellulose with properties of cellulose nitrate prepared therefrom is suggested.
