Abstract:
A series of cellulose esters (CEs) were obtained by grafting aliphatic acid chlorides (carbon chain length ranging from 8C to 18C) onto cellulose backbone, in a homogeneous lithium chloride/N,Ndimethylacetamide (LiCl/DMAc) medium. These CEs were characterized by FTIR and 1HNMR spectroscopies and were converted into films by casting. Then, they were submitted to thermal, mechanical, thermomechanical and structural analysis, using Differencial Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), uniaxial tensile tests, Dynamic Mechanical Thermal Analysis (DMTA) and XRay diffraction, respectively. The aim of this study was to establish a correlation between the evolution of such physical properties and the length of the aliphatic grafted side chain.
