100 Years of Cellulose Acetate

To commemorate the 100 years of cellulose acetate the Global Acetate Manufacturers’ Association presented a new book entitled “Cellulose Acetate Properties and Applications”.

This book was published by Wiley as part of the Macromolecular Symposia collection and reached the bookshelves in 2004. It constitutes a unique document exploring the last 100 years of acetate, its properties, and different applications.

Under the editorial responsibility of Dr. Paul Rustemeyer (Rhodia), this book includes contributions of leading academia authors and industry experts from Europe, the United States and Japan: Clemens Altaner, Bev Braddock, Paolo Carollo, Wolfgang Glasser, Barbara Grospietro, Thomas Heinze, Andreas Hummel, Rachel C.
