A series of fatty acid cellulose esters (FACEs) with both various degrees of substitution (from DS = 1.7 to 3) and side chain length were obtained by grafting aliphatic acid chlorides (from C10 to C16) onto cellulose backbone, in a homogeneous LiCl/DMAc medium. These materials were characterized by Fourier Transformed InfraRed (FTIR) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance of Proton (1H NMR) spectroscopies, as well as Wide Angle X-ray Scattering (WAXS), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), mechanical analyses and chemical resistance to concentrated acid and alkali solutions. Whatever the alkyl chains length and the DS, all samples displayed a layered structure composed of a planar arrangement of parallel cellulosic backbones with fully extended flexible side chains oriented perpendicular to the planar structure without interdigitation. The alkyl chains were able to crystallize as soon as they are long enough. As the DS decreased, the plasticizing effect of the alkyl chains was less pronounced and their ability to crystallize was improved. Regarding the mechanical behavior and the chemical resistance, similar results were observed whatever the DS is.

D002482 Cellulose A polysaccharide with glucose units linked as in CELLOBIOSE. It is the chief constituent of plant fibers, cotton being the purest natural form of the substance. As a raw material, it forms the basis for many derivatives used in chromatography, ion exchange materials, explosives manufacturing, and pharmaceutical preparations.

D004952 Esters Compounds derived from organic or inorganic acids in which at least one hydroxyl group is replaced by an –O-alkyl or another organic group. They can be represented by the structure formula RCOOR’ and are usually formed by the reaction between an acid and an alcohol with elimination of water. Ester
D005227 Fatty Acids Organic, monobasic acids derived from hydrocarbons by the equivalent of oxidation of a methyl group to an alcohol, aldehyde, and then acid.
