Abstract

AbstractThe total rate of xanthation of low molecular weight cellulose in a homogeneous medium was studied spectrophotometrically using a stopped flow technique. By combining these results with determinations of the number of primary and secondary xanthate groups, the individual rate constants for the formation of these groups were calculated.The results show that the xanthate formation is a second order reaction determined by the concentrations of carbon disulfide and alcoholate.
