Abstract
⺠Cellulose esters were synthesized from waste cotton fabric by microwave heating. ⺠Various fatty acid chloride chain lengths were used as esterifying agents. ⺠Esterifying agents and heating methods affected on DS values and other properties. ⺠Reaction time under microwave esterification was reduced to less than 3 min. ⺠Cellulose ester can be dissolved in organic solvents such as toluene, DMAc, THF.
