Excerpt from The Cellulose-Water Interaction in Rag and Wood Pulps
It has been theorized that during beating, lateral bonds between neighboring lamellae in the cell wall are broken allowing water to enter, enabling the lamellae to slide past one another and results in increased fiber flexibility (l). Evidence that some such process occurs is considered to be substantiated by the fact that during beating, pulp fibers become more flexible, collapse more easily, and disintegrate into sheet-like films or debris. Unfortunately, details of the process are lacking. There is great difficulty in examining the interior of the cellulose-water gel in the presence of water and in the ability to follow the structural changes during mechanical treatment.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the intricate relationship between cellulose, the main component of plant cell walls, and water. The author delves into the fascinating interactions that occur when these two substances come together, uncovering fundamental insights into the behavior of paper, a ubiquitous material in our daily lives. Through a series of experiments, the author meticulously measures the amount of water that cellulose can absorb, revealing the influence of factors such as the type of cellulose (wood pulp or cotton) and the process of beating, which alters theçºç structure. The results provide valuable information for understanding the properties and durability of paper, a material that plays a crucial role in everything from packaging to currency. By shedding light on the cellulose-water interaction, this book contributes to the advancement of paper science and technology, paving the way for the development of more sustainable and durable paper products. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
