Abstract
A concept concerning the secondary structure of cellulose, paralleling that proposed by Zwicky for inorganic orystals, is suggested in the hope that the present conflicting theories regarding the fine structure of cellulose may be harmonized. This picture may be described as a compromise between the concept of discrete micelles or well-defined crystallites on the one hand, and the existence of a continuous structure on the other. There appears to be nothing in the X-ray data to belie the concept of secondary structure for cellulose.
