Dissolution and Gelation of Cellulose in TBAF/DMSO Solutions: The Roles of Fluoride Ions and Water
Situation:To chemically modify cellulose to reach high yield dissolved cellulose
Cellulose is insoluble in water but soluble in salt‐containing solvents e.g.:LiCl/DMAc (McCormick, Lichatowich, J. Polym. Sci. 1979, 17)TBAF/DMSO (Heinze et al.,Macromol. Chem. Phys. 2000, 201)Ionic liquids, 1‐butyl‐3‐methylimidazolium cation with Cl ‐, Br ‐, SCN – (Swatloski et al., JACS 2002, 124)
Cellulose solutions hygroscopic and transforms into gels in the presence of water
Aim in Paper I:To increase understanding of interactions between cellulose andthe solvent ions, and the impact of water
Method: NMR Spectroscopy

Dissolution and gelation of cellulose in TBAF/DMSO
Elimination of water will increase the effect of F‐electrostatic separation of the cellulose chains
Dissociated salt: small ion will associate to OH‐cellulose Bulky counter ion to reduce the attraction between the ions

Chemical Shift Imaging NMR to track gel formation
Situation:In many applications hydrogels and transport of molecules in hydrogels
are of interest e.g.:Drugs diffusing through a water‐swollen tabletUrine uptake of diapers
The mass‐transport of the components in the system is dependent on their interaction with the material, the osmotic pressure, and concentration gradients Diffusion coefficient
Aim in Paper II:To monitor multi‐component mass‐transport
Method: 19F and 1H Chemical Shift Imaging
