Abstract: Cellulose nitrates were exposed to oxygen glow-discharge plasmas, and etch rates were determined. The changes in the surface chemistries of cellulose nitrates in these plasmas were investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). These changes are discussed in terms of reactions at the surface that result in etching and those that do not. Etching in cellulose nitrates prepared by various nitration routes was compared, and the effect of degree of substitution (DOS) of the cellulose on etch rate was investigated. © 1994.
