Other cellulosics, cellulose acetate butyrate and propionate are cemented in accordance with the technique described for cellulose acetate. In the case of dope cements, the plastic to be dissolved in solvents is cellulose propionate. Similarly for ethyl cellulose plastic, the strongest bonds are made by solvents or by solvents bodied with ethyl cellulose plastic.

Ethyl acetate is an important solvent for nitrocellulose lacquers, as an active solvent for adhesives, coatings, and inks. The resins used in the coatings and inks include ethyl cellulose, cellulose acetate butyrate, polymethylmethacrylate, polyvinyl acetate, polyvinyl butyral, polystyrene, and certain chlorinated rubbers. Other applications include manufacture of photographic film, coated papers, and adhesives. Ethyl acetate also is used as a process solvent in the pharmaceutical industry and as an extraction solvent.

Other. 2-Nitro-1-butanol is an excellent solvent for many polyamide resins, cellulose acetate butyrate, and ethylceUulose. It can be utilized in paint removers for epoxy-based coatings. 2-Hydroxymethyl-2-nitro-l,3-propanediol is usebil for control of odors in chemical toilets. Its slow release of formaldehyde ensures prolonged action to control odor, and there is no reodorant problem which sometimes is associated with the use of free formaldehyde. 2-Hydroxymethyl-2-nitro-l,3-propanediol solutions are effective preservative and embalming fluids. The slow Uberation of formaldehyde permits thorough penetration of the tissues before hardening. 

Butyric acid, the simple oxidation product of -butyraldehyde, is used chiedy in the production of cellulose acetate butyrate [9004-36-8]. Sheets of cellulose acetate butyrate are used for thermoformed sign faces, bUster packaging, goggles, and face shields. 

Cellulose acetate [9004-35-7], prepared by reaction of cellulose with acetic anhydride, acetic acid, and sulfuric acid, is spun into acetate rayon fibers by dissolving it in acetone and spinning the solution into a column of warm air that evaporates the acetone. Cellulose acetate is also shaped into a variety of plastic products, and its solutions are used as coating dopes. Cellulose acetate butyrate [9004-36-8], made from cellulose, acetic anhydride, and butyric anhydride in the presence of sulfuric acid, is a shock-resistant plastic. 

Also produces cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB) and cellulose acetate propionate (CAP) mixed esters.

Mixed esters containing the dicarboxylate moiety, eg, cellulose acetate phthalate, are usually prepared from the partially hydroly2ed lower aUphatic acid ester of cellulose in acetic acid solvent by using the corresponding dicarboxyhc acid anhydride and a basic catalyst such as sodium acetate (41,42). Cellulose acetate succinate and cellulose acetate butyrate succinate are manufactured by similar methods as described in reference 43. 

From 1946 to mid-1987, Farbenfabriken Bayer AG in Germany was the European producer of cellulose acetate, cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB), and cellulose acetate propionate (CAP) before closing its faciUties. Bayer s exit from the cellulose acetate mixed esters business leaves Eastman Chemical Co. in the United States as the sole producer of CAB/CAP resins. 

The cellulose esters with the largest commercial consumption are cellulose acetate, including cellulose triacetate, cellulose acetate butyrate, and cellulose acetate propionate. Cellulose acetate is used in textile fibers, plastics, film, sheeting, and lacquers. The cellulose acetate used for photographic film base is almost exclusively triacetate some triacetate is also used for textile fibers because of its crystalline and heat-setting characteristics. The critical properties of cellulose acetate as related to appHcation are given in Table 10. 

Cellulose acetate butyrates with high butyryl content and low viscosity are soluble in inexpensive lacquer solvents. They are widely used in lacquers for protective and decorative coatings appHed to automobiles and wood furniture.

Mixed esters such as cellulose acetate sulfate [51910-28-2] (21,22), cellulose acetate butyrate sulfate [57485-48-0] (21,22), cellulose acetate propionate sulfate [67351-39-7] (23), and ethylceUulose sulfate (24) are described in the patent Hterature but are not of commercial importance. 

The important thermoplastics used commercially are polyethylene, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), cellulose acetate butyrate (CAB), vinylidene chloride (Saran), fluorocarbons (Teflon, Halar, Kel-F, Kynar), polycarbonates, polypropylene, nylons, and acetals (Delrin). Important thermosetting plasttcs are... 

Cellulose acetate butyrate is not affected by dilute acids and alkalies or gasoline, but chlorinated solvents cause some swelhng. Nylons resist many organic solvents but are attacked by phenols, strong oxidizing agents, and mineral acids.

Whilst it is inevitable that polypropylene will be compared more frequently with polyethylene than with any other polymer its use as an injection moulding material also necessitates comparison with polystyrene and related products, cellulose acetate and cellulose acetate-butyrate, each of which has a similar rigidity. When comparisons are made it is also necessary to distinguish between conventional homopolymers and the block copolymers. A somewhat crude comparison between these different polymers is attempted in Table 11.7 but further details should be sought out from the appropriate chapters dealing with the other materials. 

The most important of the esters is cellulose acetate. This material has been extensively used in the manufacture of films, moulding and extrusion compounds, fibres and lacquers. As with all the other cellulose polymers it has, however, become of small importance to the plastics industry compared with the polyolefins, PVC and polystyrene. In spite of their higher cost cellulose acetate-butyrate and cellulose propionate appear to have retained their smaller market because of their excellent appearance and toughness. 

Cellulose acetate-butyrate (CAB) has been manufactured for a number of years in the United States (Tenite Butyrate-Kodak) and in Germany (Cellidor B-Bayer).
