The invention relates to a method for utilizing
supercritical carbon dioxide to process
cellulose; firstly, the
cellulose and a cosolvent or an inorganic
sol or a former body of the inorganic
sol are arranged in a
high pressure container;
carbon dioxide is pumped by a pumping pressure; the reaction condition is 15 to 200 DEG C; the pressure is 4 to 40MPa; the reaction time is 0.5 to 24 hours; then the activated
cellulose is manufactured; the cosolvent relates to carbinol,
ethanol, normal
butanol,
isobutyl alcohol,
acetone,
tetrahydrofuran,
formaldehyde, n-butyl
aldehyde and
isobutyraldehyde; the cellulose is a natural cellulose and a ramification thereof; the natural cellulose relates to chopped cotton fibers, cotton fabrics,
bagasse, straws, paper products, bamboo, flax and wood. The method for utilizing the
supercritical carbon dioxide to process the cellulose has the advantages that: the
processing method is simply and easily operated; the
supercritical carbon dioxide is adopted, thus having no burning, no
pollution and no toxic action and being conveniently recycled and being repeatedly used; the content of the mixed
inorganic oxide in a compound
fiber material is high; the product is easily separated and purified; the characteristic is uniform and stable; the method for utilizing the supercritical
carbon dioxide to process the cellulose has broad application prospects in the fields of catalyzing,
chemical engineering, packaging, weaving, etc.
