Abstract

Highly acetylated cellulose acetates are produced by a process involving the pretreatment of the cellulose with glacial acetic acid containing a small proportion (e.g. 0,3 per cent) of a catalyst such as sulphuric acid, the removal of a large proportion of the acetic acid and catalyst, and esterification (preferably at 0 DEG C.) with an excess of acetic anhydride and a large proportion of a substance or mixture of substances having the property of not dissolving the cellulose acetate but of swelling it. After removal of the esterifying bath, the product is substantially free from catalyst. An example is given in which benzene is the diluent used. The products, consisting of cellulose triacetates, may be worked up with softening agents into films, threads, pressed articles, &c.
