Influence of Precipitation and Conditioning Baths on the Structure, Morphology, and Properties of Cellulose Films

The influence of precipitation and conditioning baths of various natures and compositions on the structure, morphology, and properties of cellulose-hydrate films produced by solid-state dissolution of cellulose in the direct solvent N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide was studied. The structure-morphology transformations occurring in freshly formed cellulose films due to various conditionings and their influence on the physicomechanical properties of the finished films were demonstrated and analyzed for the first time.
