On the Crosslinking of Cellulose under Exposure to Radiation

摘要: The effect of γ-irradiation air-dry cotton cellulose on the degree order its supermolecular structure was studied at room temperature within a dose range 0–2 MGy. evaluated by measuring crystallinity index X-ray diffraction technique and water-retaining capacity irradiated upon both equilibrium saturation with water vapor swelling in liquid water. buildup macroradicals their decay plasticization during postradiation period were also studied. complex behavior revealed explained terms radiation-chemical crosslinks mobility macrochains submicroscopic capillarity fiber structure.
