摘要:
Modified cellulose derivatives are disclosed which contain tertiary amine group substituents in the amount of 0.05 to 0.4 mole per anhydroglucose unit of the cellulose. The modified ethyl cellulose materials are insoluble in water but soluble in dilute aqueous acid solutions. They are useful, e.g., as coating materials for medicaments since their acid solubility makes them soluble in stomach acids. They are also useful in applications where conventional ethyl cellulose is employed such as lacquer, varnish and adhesive applications.
摘要:
Cellulose derivatives are described comprising a normally waterinsoluble ethyl cellulose having 0.05 to 0.4 carboxyalkyl groups per anhydroglucose unit of the cellulose. These derivatives are insoluble in water and in acid medium but are soluble in basic aqueous media. They also have been found to be thermogelling. The use of these derivatives as coating materials and as shaped objects via forming techniques making use of the thermogelling property is disclosed.
摘要:
The invention provides reverse osmosis membranes characterized by a salt-rejecting layer of a hydroxyalkyl derivative of cellulose. The membranes are useful for desalination and other processes involving reverse osmosis.
