Notes:
A method for assessing extent of swelling of the gel fraction of formaldehyde-modified cottons, employing cupriethylenediamine hydroxide as the swelling agent, is described. Substantial differences in apparent specific volumes of swollen gel fractions are observed for cottons crosslinked by different processes to the same level of agent. The apparent crosslink density measured by the swelling of gel fraction increases with formaldehyde content of the cotton; at 0.20% formaldehyde the order of increasing crosslink density in the various processes of reaction is as follows: nonaqueous system (forms D and D′) 〈 aqueous system (forms W and W′) 〈swelling system (form F) 〈 vapor system (form V) 〈 bake-cure system (form C).
