Hemicelluloses (polysaccharides composed primarily of xylose and mannose) are much shorter in length than cellulose and are extensively branched these species may act to cross-link cellulose and other polymers, and also form the amorphous matrix of the interfibrillar space, in which cellulose microfibrils are embedded. Pectins are jelly-like, acidic polymers composed... [Pg.62]
