"Cellulose, Cellulose Products, and Artificial Rubber" by Josef Bersch offers a detailed exploration of cellulose production and its diverse applications at the turn of the 20th century. This comprehensive treatise covers the preparation of cellulose from wood and straw, the manufacture of parchment, and methods for obtaining sugar, alcohol, and oxalic acid. It further delves into the production of viscose, viscoid, nitro-celluloses, and artificial rubber.
Bersch's work provides invaluable insights into the industrial processes and chemical techniques of the era. It is a valuable resource for historians of science and technology, as well as anyone interested in the early development of cellulose-based products and the broader field of industrial chemistry.
