Abstract
It is shown that the important change in the x-ray diffraction parameters in preparation of compact products from microcrystalline cellulose and ground cotton fibres by pressing is not due to the amorphous phase of cellulose. A method for determining the degree of crystallinity of cellulose in anisotropic materials using an external standard that ensures spherical scattering symmetry is substantiated. The applicability of the proposed approach for estimating the degree of crystallinity of cellulose fibres directly in fabrics, which reduces the duration of the experimental procedures by 3–4 times, is demonstrated.
