Производитель карбоксиметилцеллюлозы Technical field
Carboxymethylated cellulose is a derivative of cellulose, in which a carboxymethyl group is bonded to a part of the hydroxyl group in the glucose residue that constitutes the skeleton of cellulose through an ether bond. Carboxymethyl Cellulose manufacturer
As the amount of carboxymethyl groups increases (ie, the degree of substitution of carboxymethyl groups increases), carboxymethylated cellulose dissolves in water.
On the other hand, by adjusting the degree of carboxymethyl substitution to an appropriate range, the fibrous shape of carboxymethyl cellulose can be maintained even in water. Carboxymethyl Cellulose factory.
As a method for producing carboxymethylated cellulose, it is generally known that the cellulose is treated with an alkali (alkalinized) and then treated (carboxymethylated) with an etherifying agent (also called a carboxymethylating agent). called etherification.) method.
There are known methods of performing both alkalization and carboxymethylation using water as a solvent, and methods of performing both alkalization and carboxymethylation in a solvent mainly composed of an organic solvent (Patent Documents 1 to 4), the former is called the “water medium method” and the latter is called the “solvent method”. Carboxymethyl Cellulose manufacturer
Contents of the invention
Carboxymethylcellulose is used as an additive in various fields such as food and beverages, cosmetics, and water-based coatings due to its properties such as thickening, water absorption, and water retention. Carboxymethyl Cellulose manufacturer
These general-purpose carboxymethylated celluloses are usually water-soluble polymers with a carboxymethyl substitution degree (also called etherification degree) of 0.55 or more.
On the other hand, in recent years, studies have been conducted on carboxymethylated cellulose that maintains the crystallinity of cellulose by setting the degree of carboxymethyl substitution to 0.50 or less and partially maintaining a fibrous shape without completely dissolving in water. to explore new uses utilizing its characteristics such as shape and crystallinity. Carboxymethyl Cellulose manufacturer
The object of the present invention is to provide carboxymethylated cellulose having novel characteristics, in particular, a low degree of carboxymethyl substitution (0.50 or less) and a high crystallinity of cellulose I type (50% or more).
The present inventors studied carboxymethylated cellulose with a low degree of carboxymethyl substitution (0.50 or less) and a high degree of crystallization of cellulose I type (50% or more).
However, carboxymethylated cellulose in which both the degree of carboxymethyl substitution and the crystallinity of cellulose I type are within the above ranges are likely to be inhomogeneous, resulting in problems such as unstable dispersion. In addition, the fibrous shape is easily maintained in the dispersion medium and agglomeration (caking) is easily formed. Carboxymethyl Cellulose manufacturer
It is presumed that this is because local introduction of carboxymethyl groups into cellulose results in partially soluble parts in water and parts insoluble in carboxymethylated cellulose, resulting in quality differences caused by the state of introduction of carboxymethyl groups. Dispersion is unstable. This phenomenon is particularly significant when the degree of substitution of the carboxymethyl group is low.
This is considered to be because it is difficult to introduce a small amount of carboxymethyl groups into cellulose uniformly (not in a densely packed form at one position or multiple positions). Carboxymethyl Cellulose factory
In addition, it is considered that when a portion locally dissolved in the dispersion medium and an insoluble portion occur in carboxymethylcellulose, the insoluble portion tends to remain in the form of a lump.
In addition, for example, in the range of the carboxymethyl substitution degree of 0.20 to 0.50, it is difficult to maintain the crystallinity of cellulose type I at 50% or more. Carboxymethyl Cellulose manufacturer
It is presumed that this is because local introduction of carboxymethyl groups into cellulose causes dissolution in water starting from the portion where the substituents are concentrated, thereby reducing the crystallinity of the entire carboxymethylated cellulose.
In order to produce carboxymethylated cellulose with more stable quality (uniform dispersion), the present inventors have a low carboxymethyl substitution degree (0.50 or less) and a high crystallinity of cellulose I type (50% or more). Carboxymethylated cellulose has been intensively studied.
It was found that in the carboxymethylation of cellulose, alkalinization (alkali treatment of cellulose) in a water-based solvent, Carboxymethyl Cellulose factory
Thereafter, carboxymethylation (also called etherification.) is performed in a mixed solvent of water and organic solvent, Carboxymethyl Cellulose manufacturer
Therefore, it is different from the conventional water-based method (a method that uses water as a solvent to perform both alkalinization and carboxymethylation) and the solvent method (a method that uses an organic solvent as the main solvent to perform both alkalinization and carboxymethylation). square method) Carboxymethyl Cellulose manufacturer
