摘要 |
<p>This invention provides a method for hydrophilic cellulose fibers capable of inhibiting decrease in the degree of polymerization and whiteness degree of oxidized cellulose fibers in oxidized cellulose in which a carbon at position 6 of each glucose unit in the cellulose fiber starting material is oxidized to a carboxyl group, the method comprising (A) the step of performing dehalogenation together with reduction,
the dehalogenation comprising mixing a dehalogenation agent, a reducing agent, and oxidized cellulose fibers, and removing halogens remaining in the oxidized cellulose fibers, and
the reduction comprising reducing a ketone group at position 2 and/or position 3 of each glucose unit in the oxidized cellulose fibers.</p> |
