“X-ray diffraction (XRD) demonstrated that, the treatment of cellulose with concentrated phosphoric acid led to defibrated cellulose with lower crystallinity index than original cellulose fibers.”

“Amorphogenesis of PPRS by phosphoric acid treatment to expand open structural area of the cellulose fibers resulted in twofold higher cellulase adsorption and increased the yield of the first re-hydrolysis step from 13% to 46%.”
“In this study, we have shown that, by simply disrupting the hydrogen-bond network of cellulose with phosphoric acid treatment, the regenerated cellulose can be a good gelling material and emulsion stabilizer.”
