Ferric perchlorate hydrate as a new catalyst for highly efficient esterification of cellulose at room temperature
Abstract Ferric perchlorate was tested for the first time as a new catalyst to accelerate the esterification of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) at room temperature in a less amount of acetic anhydride compared to the amount used in the conventional methods. It was possible to manufacture cellulose...
