The Preparation of Partially Cyanoethylated Cotton with Acrylonitrile

Abstract: The preparation of partially cyanoethylated cotton with acrylonitrile in the presence of sodium hydroxide is described, including effects of changes in time, temperature, and concentration of reagents. Products with retention of the fibrous form have been ob tained with degrees of substitution up to 2.7 cyanoethyl groups per anhydroglucose unit. Hydrolysis of the cyanoethyl group occurs readily under alkaline conditions and re sults in both cleavage and conversion to the carboxyethyl group. Maximum conversion… Show more

“…Final temperature of thermal destruction for CEC and AEC shifted to higher temperature and is 565 and 595 o C respectively. In the temperature range 400-450 o C the endothermic peaks are observed, which can be attributed to the formation of β-glucosan [27]. Figure 4 shows DTG curves for the same samples.…”

“…(145) Cyanoethylation. One of the earliest examples of etherification of cellulose by an unsaturated compound through vinyl addition is the cyanoethylation of cotton (146). This base-catalyzed reaction with acrylonitrile [107-13-1], a Michael addition, proceeds as follows: For most textile uses, a DS < 1 is desirable.…”
