Abstract
Cellulose is esterified with an organic acid anhydride in a medium which is a solvent for the primary ester formed, and which comprises a neutral liquid chlorinated lower aliphatic compound containing at least two chlorine atoms each of which is attached to a carbon atom adjacent to a carbon atom having no attached chlorine atoms. The neutral organic liquid may be ethylidene chloride, or 1.3-dichloropropane. This liquid may be employed in admixture with acetic acid or other organic acid. The process may be employed in the production of cellulose esters of aliphatic acids containing up to four carbon atoms, e.g. cellulose acetate, propionate, or butyrate. Cotton linters or wood pulp may be pretreated with formic or acetic acid containing a small amount of sulphuric acid. The cellulose with the pretreatment liquid may then be placed in an acetylation medium comprising acetic p anhydride, sulphuric acid, unless sufficient is already present in the pretreatment liquor, and ethylidene chloride or another of the specified chlorinated compounds. The amount of acetic anhydride may be 250-350 per cent of the weight of cellulose, and the amount of ethylidene chloride may be above 100 and even as much as 1,000 or more per cent of the weight of cellulose. A low proportion of sulphuric acid may be used, e.g. one half to 2 per cent of the weight of cellulose. Esterification may be carried out at 20 DEG -40 DEG C. The primary cellulose acetate may be ripened in the solution after adding water or alcohol. The ripened cellulose acetate may be precipitated by incorporating with the solution a large volume of non-solvent, e.g. benzene. Precipitation may be effected or aided by removing part of the chlorinated compound by distillation. A precipitating liquid at a temperature above the boiling point of the chlorinated compound may be used, e.g. water at or near 100 DEG C. The cellulose acetate or other cellulose ester obtained by the process, may be used in the production of artificial filaments, foils, and other extruded or moulded articles.
