Interaction of cellulose and lignocellulosic polymers with water and aqueous systems

The modern views on the cellulose structure and the physicochemical aspects of reactions of celluloses and lignocellulosic polymers with water and aqueous systems are considered. The results of systematic research of the supramolecular structure, accessibility, and swelling of celluloses in relation to the properties of liquid media are generalized. The mathematical expressions for estimating the degree of accessibility of celluloses in liquid media are given.
