407I n the table, thrce typical numerical examples are given for the sake of comparison. The data clearly show that the terms of 2nd order in @,,w with frcqucncy w and 2w are several orders of magnitude below the fundarncntal componcnts (1st order in 1/2 @ow with frequency w).

A statistical evaluation of percentages of methylated sorbitols, found by the permethylation-degradation method of cellulose formulas, demonstrates that the percentage of 6-monomethylsorbitol results essentially from intraglucosic bridges formed by two (or more) oxymethylene groups between the hydroxyl groups in the 2- and 3-positions of an anhydroglucose unit of cellulose.
