Specular Reflectance FTIR has been used to follow the chemical changes in cellulose when cotton cloth was aged for 2, 4, 7, 11, 14, 23, and 31 hours at 190°C in air and in nitrogen. The infrared absorptions of carbonyl and carboxylate groups were measured from the 1600-1750 cm-1 region. After 31 hours of aging in air and in nitrogen, the extent of carboxylate formation was approximately the same although oxidation proceeded more rapidly in air. The rate of aging in nitrogen proceeded at a uniform rate over 31 hours whereas in air, a leveling off point was reached after 11 hours. The dependence of the formation of carboxylate on the accessibility of OH groups is discussed. These results indicate the exceptional use of Specular Reflectance absorbance infrared spectroscopy for rapid, sensitive, and nondestructive detection of oxidation degradation in cotton textiles. The aging of c e l l u l o s i c t e x t i l e s includes a complex set of reactions involving oxidation, h y d r o l y s i s , c r o s s l i n k i n g . and chain s c i s s i o n . (1-3) Slow degradation at room temperature i s cumulative and can be followed by a chemical change i n the c e l l u l o s e structure or by a physical change i n some measured parameter. Often a r t i f i c i a l heat-aging i s used to simulate the natural aging process assuming that s i m i l a r changes occur.(4-7) These changes from thermal aging in a i r . in nitrogen, or i n vacuo affect c e l l u l o s e s t r u c t u r a l morphology, chemical a c c e s s i b i l i t y , and the extent of degradation. (8-11) General Infrared Spectroscopy Background Infrared spectroscopy i s recognized as a universal instrumental method for analyzing changes i n chemical structure.

Experimental Cotton p r i n t c l o t h was heat-aged at 2 ,4, 7, 11, 14, 23, and 31 hours i n a i r and i n nitrogen at 190°C. The procedure i s described elsewhere.(33) Infrared absorption was measured as a function of wavelength to d i s t i n g u i s h carbonyl and carboxylate groups which absorb from 1600 - 1750 cm-1. The Fourier transform i n f r a r e d spectrometer i s described i n d e t a i l with theory and methods i n G r i f f i t h and de Haseth's book on the subject. (34) The Specular Reflectance spectra presented here show high signal-to-noise and were c o l l e c t e d by placing a 1 3/4" χ 2" c l o t h sample on top of the 1/2" diameter opening of a reflectance sample c e l l holder which was placed i n the infrared beam. The sample c e l l was configured w i t h two f i x e d mirror planes meeting at an apex below the opening which directed the i n f r a r e d beam h o r i z o n t a l l y and upward at an incidence angle, being directed to the detector by the second mirror plane. A l l measurements were of absorbance by peak height values. A Mattson S i r i u s model 100 FTIR interferometer and computerized data c o l l e c t i o n , storage, and data manipulation system was used to c o l l e c t a l l spectra into i n d i v i d u a l data f i l e s . A mercury cadmium t e l l u r i d e detector with transmission window of 4000 to 500 cm-1 was used. A computer program was w r i t t e n to co-add 16 mirror scans i n the foward d i r e c t i o n and 16 i n reverse. Each s i n g l e pass of the mirror recorded 256 scans f o r a t o t a l of 8,192 data c o l l e c t i o n s each at 2 cm-1 r e s o l u t i o n . These data c o l l e c t i o n s were c o l l e c t e d through a 16 b i t A/D converter and were s i g n a l averaged i n t o 32 b i t words f o r f u r t h e r computations. In Figure 2A a mirror spectrum was c o l l e c t e d to represent the background. A mirror spectrum was c o l l e c t e d at the beginning of each session of data c o l l e c t i o n and were were used to r a t i o singlebeam spectra. This normalization corrected f o r instrument v a r i a b i l i t y . Figure 2B i s the Fourier transform of the interferogram (singlebeam spectrum) of the unheated c o n t r o l sample. Figure 2C i s the absorbance spectrum obtained by r a t i o i n g Β to A. A l l other absorbance spectra were obtained by r a t i o i n g a singlebeam spectrum to the mirror spectrum. These other spectra are represented by Figure 3A, 2 hours i n a i r , 3B, 31 hours i n a i r , 4A, 14 hours i n a i r , and 4B, 14 hours i n nitrogen. In Figure 5 the development of the carboxylate band at 1730 cm-1 i s ratioed against the CH s t r e t c h i n g band i n the 2900 cm-1 region. The 2900 cm-1 band was used as a second normalization standard f o r each sample since i t showed no appreciable change with aging. Normalizing to t h i s i n t e r n a l standard provided a c o r r e c t i o n f o r changes i n r e f l e c t i v i t y due to changes i n sample p o s i t i o n i n g . In Figure 6 the 1730 cm-1 carboxylate band i s compared to the OH s t r e t c h i n g absorptions which represent intermolecular hydrogen bonding at 3300 cm-1 f o r an i n d i c a t i o n of the interdependence of these f u n c t i o n a l groups during aging.

Discussion and Results There i s a vide variety of complex c e l l u l o s e oxidation reactions. Oxidation products. oxycelluloses. can form from s e l e c t i v e oxidations of the C-6 OH. C-2 OH. and C-3 OH groups to carbonyl and carboxyl groups (35). These OH groups on c e l l u l o s e have different r e a c t i v i t i e s . It can be reasoned that oxidation w i l l cause reducing end group conversion from OH at the reducing end of a polymer chain to aldehyde to acid carboxylate (36). Different r e a c t i v i t i e s and a c c e s s i b i l i t i e s can be found i n different parts of the f i b e r . An extensive body of l i t e r a t u r e has been amassed to describe the effects of various oxidizing agents including 21% oxygen i n a i r on the formation of oxycelluloses under widely diverse conditions of time, temperature, and concentration. During low temperature degradation of c e l l u l o s e the glycosyl u n i t s . C(l) -0 - 0 ( 4 · ) . decompose with the formation of water, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide. (37.) With the cleavage of the gylcosyl u n i t s , shorter c e l l u l o s e chains form which can lead to a loss i n t e n s i l e strength. Certain measured parameters such as weight l o s s , degree of polymerization, strength retained, and color change have been used to follow the k i n e t i c effects of heat-aging i n a i r . (8.38) The thermal degradation of c e l l u l o s e i s thought to f i t an o v e r a l l pattern or series of steps which describe the rate of attack on the glycosyl linkages. The f i r s t i n i t i a l stage affects weak linkages. This i s followed by a slower rate where these linkages in the amorphous regions are affected. In the f i n a l stage the slowest rate of attack i s proposed for the c r y s t a l l i n e regions where a l e v e l i n g off degree of polymerization (LODP) i s described. (39) Specular Reflectance FTIR Spectra. When the spectra are examined for the effects of aging, the unheated cotton control in Figure 2C contains the sharp band at 3600 cm-1 assigned for free OH stretching (non-hydrogen- bonded OH). (40) The sample was free of water and the spectrum was collected after a long purge of the o p t i c a l bench where the samples were stored under the drying effect of l i q u i d nitrogen used to cool the detector. A l l samples were handled inside a glove bag sealed to the opening to the sample compartment. By contrast, the broad hydrogen bonded absorption at 3300 cm-1 i n Figure 3A indicates that after two hours of aging there are definite morphology changes brought about by inter-and intra-molecular hydrogen bonding which can lead to c r o s s l i n k i n g . Another c r i t i c a l spectral region i s 1630 cm-1 where water absorption bands have been reported (41) In this study this band develops from chemical change and not from absorbed water. This i s supported by the spectral changes i n 3360 and 1630 cm-1 which do not p r o c è d e on the same time frame, consequently the chemical changes i n these groups are not due to the same chemical species. The assignment of the 1630 cm-1 absorption as carbonyl i s consistant with the spectra of -glucose i n i t s aldohexose form. (41) When the Specular Reflectance spectra in Figures 3A and 3B are compared to the PAS spectrum i n Figure 1. the Reflectance spectra show somewhat better spectral d e t a i l because of a higher resolution (2 cm-1 versus 4 cm-1. and a higher number of data c o l l e c t i o n s . 8.192 versus 1000).

of the attack i n the amorphous regions and the r e s i s t i v i t y to chemical attack of the remaining highly ordered m i c r o c r y s t a l l i n e regions (39). The spectral data collected for Figure 5 support what others have found, that air-aging p r o c è d e s faster than nitrogen-aging but that in both environments, an endpoint can be reached. (8) The oxycelluloses which form i n c e l l u l o s e with aging are therefore time and temperature dependent. The rate at which they develop can be controlled to a limited degree by choosing a nitrogen environment to slow the process. With t h i s exceptional use of Specular Reflectance FTIR. i t may be possible to follow the aging process nondestructively and to estimate the extent of degradation which corresponds to the end of a t e x t i l e ' s useful l i f e .
