在制造粘胶人造丝过程中需要将自碱纤维素黄酸化而得的纤维素黄酸盐溶于稀碱液中成为粘胶,然后在恒温下放置若干时间以进行熟成,达到一定程度后始可纺丝。在这熟成过程中,粘胶发生一系列的化学变化和胶体化学变化。 Klauditz曾指出在粘胶熟成过程中纤维素黄酸盐分子逐步分解,其酯化度逐渐降低,他认为这是由于纤维素黄酸盐的皂化作用: In the process of manufacturing viscose rayon, it is necessary to dissolve cellulose yellow acid salt obtained from yellowing of alkaline cellulose into viscose in a dilute alkali solution and then to leave for some time at a constant temperature for ripening to a certain extent Spinable. During this process, a series of chemical and colloid chemical changes occur in the viscose. Klauditz has pointed out that in the process of viscose ripening cellulose catabolism gradually decomposed, the degree of its esterification decreased, he believes that this is due to cellulose saponification of salt:
