Cellulose in NaOH–water based solvents: a review (2016, methodology): “…1700 5.1 Northolt et al. 2001 LiCl/DMAc 0.19 wet (1.4 g/d) 500 (3.74 g/d) 6.2 Turbak et al. 1981 Fibres were also prepared from solutions in NaOH-water-urea (Cai et al. 2004; Cai et al. 2007a; Qi et al. 2008b; Chen et al. 2007) and NaOH-water-thiourea (Ruan et al. 2004b; Chen et al. 2006).”
Solubility and property of chitin in NaOH/urea aqueous solution (2007, unknown): “Also the degradation rate of cellulose in 6 wt% NaOH/4 wt% urea aqueous solution was obviously slower than in cuoxam solution (Zhou & Zhang, 2000), from which novel regenerated cellulose fibers have been successfully spun (Cai et al., 2004).”
