Abstract
An anionic cellulose nitrate derivative is described, which has: (i) a degree of acid group substitution (DS (acid)) in the range of 0.01 to 0.2; and (ii) a nitrogen content of 10.7 wt. % to 12.3 wt. %, based on the weight of cellulose nitrate derivative. The anionic cellulose nitrate derivative is prepared by a process which includes esterifying cellulose nitrate feed material with at least one dicarboxylic acid anhydride (e.g., maleic anhydride). Aqueous dispersions according to the present invention include: (a) at least on anionic cellulose nitrate derivative according to the present invention; and (b) at least one base.
