In addition to its primary use in the production of paper and paperboard, cellulose is used to produce some 60,000 metric tons of cellulose ether for use in foods, cosmetics and pharmaceutical products. This book describes the chemical structures and their interactions in cellulose and the cellulose derivatives used in foods, cosmetics and pharmaceutical products. In addition to functional characteristics the book also describes and explains the various applications in an easy to understand fashion. Because of the numerous sample applications, practising chemists are able to test and refine existing formulations. This makes the book a comprehensive standard reference for everyone using cellulose and its derivatives in their products.
