Abstract

Abstract Residual hydroxyl groups of commercially available cellulose acetate (39.9% acetyl) have been reacted partially with phenyl isocyanate. The characteristics of these modified polymers have been studied. Membranes have been cast from these polymers to study their potentiality as reverse osmosis membranes. The work has been further extended to investigated the stability of these modified CA under the influence of high temperature and γ irradiation.
