Cellulose is extracted using soda pulping method and it is known as the simplest method. The chemical used for soda pulping in this study is sodium hydroxide (NaOH). After that, the cellulose content was analyzed using Kurschner’s and Hanack’s method. Then, experiment and analysis was done to determ...
