Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the titled cellulose remarkably excellent in solubility in an aqueous alkali hydroxide solution without excessively decreasing its degree of polymerization, by cooking cellulose made amorphous so as to have a crystallinity higher than a specified value with high-pressure steam and subjecting it to explosive comminution. CONSTITUTION:Cellulose as a starting material is made amorphous so as to decrease its degree of polymerization to 35% or below, fed to an explosive comminutor externally heated to a specified temperature (e.g., 350-800 deg.C) and cooked by feeding the comminutor with high-pressure steam from a boiler. The cooked cellulose is subjected to explosive comminution by instantaneously expanding it by ejection into the air by shutting the steam valve on the boiler side of the explosive comminutor and immediately opening the ball valve on the receiver side.

The treated cellulose obtained by the various treatment methods described above also has a certain degree of solubility in aqueous alkali hydroxide solutions. However, in this case, the degree of polymerization is also considerably reduced, and the improvement in solubility in aqueous alkali hydroxide solutions is due to this decrease in the degree of polymerization. Therefore, with these treatments, it is impossible to improve the solubility without significantly reducing the degree of polymerization, and it is difficult to form threads or films using soluble cellulose with such a low degree of polymerization. be. Even if it can be molded, its physical properties are so poor that it cannot be put to practical use. In conventional technology, the degree of polymerization is 40.
It was impossible to increase the solubility Sa to 90% or more when the solubility was 0 or more.

In the following description, the process of instantaneously ejecting and expanding cellulose into atmospheric pressure will be referred to as blasting process. The technology of treating cellulose by blasting has already been known before the present invention. For example, JP-A-60-173001
A typical example is disclosed in the publication. In this example, cellulose is steamed and exploded using 5 to 30 kg/d gauge saturated steam to obtain cellulose fine particles. : The effect of the treatment is not exerted until the point where the amorphous portion crystallizes during the steaming, and alkali solubility cannot be sufficiently imparted. Even in the normal blasting treatment method, the alkali solubility gradually increases as the steaming temperature increases or the steaming time increases, but at that point the degree of polymerization also decreases significantly. Solubility is brought about by a decrease in the degree of polymerization, and even when such cellulose is formed into a fiber film, its strength is low and its utility value is low.

According to a preliminary study by the present inventors, when blasting cellulose, it is possible to change the steaming pressure (temperature), steaming time, and/or moisture content of cellulose as a raw material. The structure and properties of can vary widely. Generally speaking, as the steaming pressure (temperature) is increased and the steaming time is lengthened,
Alternatively, as the moisture content present together with the raw material cellulose is reduced, the solubility of cellulose improves and the degree of polymerization decreases. In the method of blasting cellulose, the present invention involves first steaming cellulose which has been amorphized to a degree of crystallinity of 35 degrees or less in pressurized steam, and then instantaneously ejecting and expanding it into atmospheric pressure. This feature allows the solubility of cellulose to be dramatically improved without excessively lowering the degree of polymerization of cellulose.

The feature of the method of the present invention is that the explosion is carried out under relatively mild conditions that hardly cause decomposition, depolymerization or crystallization of cellulose. Although cellulose is amorphized to have a crystallinity of 35 degrees or less under such mild conditions that no significant effect is produced, it is possible to significantly improve only the solubility by blasting cellulose as a raw material.

During the steaming process using pressurized steam, the steam penetrates into areas other than the crystalline regions of cellulose, so the amount of water vapor that has a low crystallinity penetrating into the cellulose increases. Therefore, even if the pressure difference during explosion is small, the explosion It is thought that the structure of cellulose becomes more strongly disturbed. This is particularly manifested as a decrease in the amount of intramolecular hydrogen bonds.
