The method of dissolving cellulose acetate
There is a technique today to dissolve cellulose acetate. Prepare an appropriate amount of solvent first, such as acetone, which is mild in nature and has a good affinity for cellulose acetate. Place cellulose acetate in a clean container, pour acetone slowly, and stir gently with a glass rod in the meantime to ensure that the two blend evenly. When stirring, the action should be steady and slow, so as not to cause too much foam in the solution.
Or use dichloromethane as a solvent. Take an appropriate amount of dichloromethane and inject it into a vessel containing cellulose acetate. This process needs to pay attention to the ventilation of the environment, because dichloromethane is slightly volatile. Stir gently to help it dissolve. When the solution is observed that there are no obvious particles, the texture is uniform, and it is clear, the cellulose acetate is roughly dissolved.
After dissolving, if subsequent operations are required, such as molding, etc., the solution should be properly disposed of according to established regulations to prevent it from deteriorating or losing its properties due to external influences.
