films as well as a variety of stable cellulose derivatives used in many areas of ind-
ustry and domestic life, which usually aims as an artificial production (Klemm,
Philipp, Heinze, Heinze, & Wagenknecht, 1998). Most of the empirical knowl-
edge on cellulose was acquired a thousand years ago, especially on the dying cellu-
lose fibers, burning wood, preparing charcoal, and biodegradation of cellulose by
rotting.
In the annals of polymers, cellulose occupies a unique place. In 1838, Payen
(Payen, 1838) recognized and coined “cellulose” as a definitive substance. For chem-
ical modifications, cellulose has been used as a precursor for many applications, even
before its polymeric nature was recognized. This pathway milestone contributed to
the discovery of cellulose nitrate, which commonly misnamed as nitrocellulose by
Schnbein in 1846. The preparation of Schweizer’s reagent, i.e., cuprammonium
hydroxide solution, representing the first cellulose solvent in 1857, and the synthesis
of an organo-soluble cellulose acetate by Schtzenberger in 1865 (Klemm et al., 1998;
Klemm, Heublein, et al., 2005; Klemm, Schmauder, & Heinze, 2005). The first offi-
cially polymeric materials used as a plastic and a softener was partially functiona-
lized as cellulose nitrate mixed with camphor, which is well known under the
trade name of “celluloid”. The higher nitrogen content of the cellulose nitrates is
used extensively for biomedical and military purposes in those days.
Regenerated cellulose filaments were obtained in a dissolved aqueous bath by
spinning cellulose in cuprammonium hydroxide (Woodings, 2016). Invented in
1892 by Cross and his teams, the largest part of cellulose-based artificial fibers called
viscose process have also been manufactured (Klemm et al., 1998; Klemm,
Heublein, et al., 2005; Klemm, Schmauder, & Heinze, 2005). Today, this process
is practiced worldwide with an output annually of about 3 million tons. It makes
use of the formation of cellulose xanthogenate/cellulose xanthate. In industrial appli-
cations, cellulose xanthate is water-soluble, less-stable anionic ester, which usually
prepared by the reaction of cellulose with aqueous sodium hydroxide, NaOH and
carbon disulfide, CS2, while in an acid bath, its decomposition by spinning. Certain
xanthate salts and bisxanthates, i.e., dixanthogen are used in many mineral proces-
sing as flotation agents. They are intermediates in the Chugaev elimination process,
which are used to control radical polymerization under the reversible addition-
fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) process. It was also known as macromolecular
design via interchange of xanthates (MADIX). In the 1920s to 1930s, the cellulose
chemistry origin was as a branch of polymer, and its research can be traced back to
Staudinger fundamental experiments of on the acetylation and deacetylation of cel-
lulose, whereas these experiments resulted in the concept of polymer-analogous
reactions (Klemm et al., 1998; Klemm, Heublein, et al., 2005; Klemm,
Schmauder, & Heinze, 2005). The macromolecules functional groups in cellulose
are predominantly hydroxyl groups, which undergo the same kind of reactions as
the corresponding low-molecular compounds. It also observed that the supramolec-
ular structure of the polymer would determine the rate and final degree of its con-
version, as well as the distribution of the functional groups, which has been well
recognized for cellulose.

animal and mineral sources directly. Whereas, the cell wall of animals does not con-
tain cellulose, but there are devoid of cell wall (Kost & Chua, 2002; Paulraj et al.,
2020). Natural fibers are classified according to their parts of origins, which are gen-
erally composed mainly of cellulose, i.e., seed, leaf, bast, etc. Most of these cellulose
are isolated and extracted to serve in the manufacture of paper and cloth. This fiber
can be further categorized into the following as shown in Table 1.1. The most used
cellulose obtained and used are collected from cotton, flax, hemp, sisal, jute, kenaf,
and bamboo (Rahman & Bakri, 2021; Rahman, Hamdan, & Ngaini, 2019).

8 CHAPTER 1 Sources of cellulose
strength formed by the cellulose would rest on its aspect ratio, which is invariably
defined by the particles shape and size that was formed. The high aspect ratio micro-
fibrillated cellulose reportedly formed strong entangled disordered networks in con-
trast to a low aspect ratio MCC, which created feebly by the bonded networks
(P€a€akk€
o et al., 2007; Saxena and Brown Jr, 2001).
Cellulose has also been used as replacer or substitute for fat in the food systems.
Cellulose is often dispersed into an aqueous medium and used to simulate fat in the
food system. To reduce the amount of fats in ground meat, frozen desserts, yogurt,
dairy, and baked products, a significant amount of work has been conducted and
ongoing research is needed to improve the existing methods. Cellulose insoluble
nature in water and as a fat replacement or substitution in food systems reportedly
produced excellent results, which shows it potentially to be used in food system
(Gibis, Schuh, & Weiss, 2015).
Viktor, Ana, Verica, Steva, and Branko (2011) have reported that the cellulose
and carbohydrate polymers can be used as wall materials for encapsulation, due
to its edibility, biodegradable, soft and form a barrier between the core and surround-
ings. While, De Barros, Lechner, Charalampopoulos, Khutoryanskiy, and Edwards
(2015) reported that the cellulose can also help for the survival of probiotic cells dur-
ing extrusion/spheroidization as well as excellent protection from gastric acid,
whereas its improved over time, as the fabricated MCC calcium crosslinked alginate
as the wall material. Furthermore, sphere disintegration efficiency and rapid release
of the probiotics in intestinal conditions could be also be achieved with the combi-
nation of MCC and sodium alginate.
The application of an edible film, particularly taken and process directly from the
fresh farm production is fundamentally constrained by the need to address diverse
properties, i.e., cost, availability, functionality, mechanical properties, attributes,
optical behavior, barrier effects against moisture and gases, and its resistance to
microbes (Falguera, Quintero, Jimenez, Muñoz, & Ibarz, 2011). Cellulose such as
MCC can be isolated from a variety of cellulosic sources and have been used to form
composite films with clear improvements in its optical, mechanical properties, and
thermal stability (Galus & Kadzi nska, 2015; Mihranyan, 2011; Pereda, Amica,
Rácz, & Marcovich, 2011; Suppakul, Jutakorn, & Bangchokedee, 2010).
1.4.2 Textile
To meet the rapidly growing demand for textile products and applications, cotton is
not the only answer towards sustainability. Therefore, cellulose from wood-based
fibers is another attractive alternative towards this sustainability issues, similarly,
goes to algae and weeds (Mihranyan, 2011). Even though wood is a highly potential
candidate to replace fossil materials, other sources need to be investigated, espe-
cially in current high demand of circular economy. Taking examples of high qual-
ity textiles made from lyocell fibers, it can be obtained from (i) pure cotton waste
pulp, and (ii) blending with conventional dissolving pulp (Mihranyan, 2011). The
staple fibers were repeatedly tested, and the results show the two of the studied

The Southern Railway of Peru, leading up from Mollendo, is an
important line which will be referred to later. Back of the coastal
bluffs, which rise on irregular slopes 3000 feet or more, is a desert
plateau of especial interest, on account of the sand dunes 10-12 feet
high which move slowly over it.
Moquegua, a Province south, the last district held by Peru, has a
primary port, Ilo, from which a railway 62 miles long extends to its
capital, Moquegua. The soil of the Province is especially adapted to
grapes and olives, which with wine and oil are the chief exports.
Many varieties of minerals are known to exist here in quantity.
