The optical activity of the cholesteric liquid crystalline phases of solutions of cellulose
diacetate in nitromethane and dimethylsulfoxide was studied. These systems exhibited …

In this study, the optical activity of cellulose di and triacetate films with a highly oriented
vitrified structure was studied. The systems possess high values of specific optical rotation …

Modification of cellulose acetates via sorption-desorption of vapors of mesogenic solvents in
which the polymer forms a lyotropic liquid crystal phase and of mixtures of these solvents …

The ability of acetate fibers to experience spontaneous changes in their linear dimensions
under the action of vapors of aprotic, amphiprotic, and protic solvents, which are widely used …

A Mickelson laser interferometer is used to study the polymer dissolution and diffusion in the
system of cellulose diacetate fiber and nitromethane solvent. Digital interferograms at …

The existence of the liquid-crystal state of cellulose acetate in nitromethane has been shown
on the basis of the calculation data, rheological and x-ray structural analysis, and …

This chapter summarizes recently developed researches concerning cellulose derivatives
composites obtained by blending of cellulose derivatives or of cellulose derivatives with …

Spontaneous variation of the linear size (elongation-contraction) of acetate fibers in a vapor
of dimethyl sulfoxide, which is a mesophasogenic solvent, ie, a solvent forming a liquid …

An investigation was made of the kinetics of sorption of water, ethyl alcohol, and their blends
by cellulose hydrate and cellulose diacetate. It was shown that the systems are …

The optical activity of anisotropic solutions of cellulose diacetate in nitromethane and
dimethyl sulfoxide and of diand triacetate films with vitrified ordered structure has been …
