Abstract
⺠The methyl ester of OCA (OCAM) was successfully prepared from oxidized cellulose acetate (OCA). ⺠The viscosity-average molecular weights of the polymers were from â¼38,349 to â¼27,524. ⺠Powder X-ray diffraction studies revealed that OCAMs are low crystallinity materials. ⺠OCAM shows the highest solubility of 211-280 mg/ml in chloroform. ⺠The moisture sorption ability decreases significantly with acetylation and methylation of OC.
