Phosphoric Acid-Mediated Depolymerization and Decrystallization of α-Cellulose Obtained from Corn Cob: Preparation of Low Crystallinity Cellulose and Some Physicochemical Properties

Abstract: Purpose: Low crystallinity celluloses (LCC) are materials that have a substantially reduced degree of crystallinity, typically ranging between 15 and 45%. It is useful as an excipient in preparation of tablets and confectionery products. The aim of this work was to obtain from αcellulose content of corn cob, a low crystallinity cellulose (LCC-CC), and study its physical properties as well as evaluation of its potential as tablet excipient. Methods: α-cellulose (AC-CC) obtained from corn cob by a delignificatio… Show more

“…This mixture was then filtered, washed with distilled water until pH was neutral, the bleaching process was repeated with 10% H2O2 for 15 min at 60 °C. Finally, it was dried in an oven at 60 °C and was kept in vacuum desiccators (Ohwoavworhua and Adelakun, 2005). Do not add any text to the headers (do not set running heads) and footers, not even page numbers, because text will be added electronically.…”

“…Tahap pertama dari isolasi α-selulosa dari TKS adalah proses delignifikasi dengan menggunakan HNO 3 3,5% dan NaNO 2 untuk menghilangkan lignin dari TKS dalam bentuk nitrolignin yang larut dalam air (Ohwoavworhua, 2005). Selanjutnya proses swelling dengan menggunakan NaOH 2% dan Na 2 SO 3 2%, pada proses ini terjadi pengembangan serat sehingga hemiselulosa, garam-garam mineral, dan abu hilang, dan menghasilkan pulp berwarna kuning kecoklatan (Sheltami, 2012).…”
