Today, I asked in the academy, "Is cellulose acetate a thermoplastic material?" Many wise people gathered to discuss it.
Or: "Cellulose acetate has the sign of thermoplasticity. When heated, its molecular chain is energized and flexible, and it is malleable, and can be shaped according to the mold. When it is cold, it will be shaped, and if it is heated again, it can be reshaped. This is also the property of thermoplastic materials."
Also said: "Looking at its structure, cellulose acetate is formed by esterification of cellulose and acetic anhydride. Its intermolecular force and the flexibility of the chain enable it to have good fluidity when heated, so it can be shaped. This is also the quality of thermoplastic materials."
In summary, cellulose acetate is indeed a thermoplastic material. After this study, everyone has a deeper understanding of the properties of cellulose acetate.
