Bamboo cellulose is a non-dangerous, biodegradable polymer with high elastic, compressive quality thereby beneficial in commercial and pharmaceutical industries. However, preparing it involves a complex procedure of solvent dissolution. NaOH/urea solution is a common solvent for cellulose dissolutio...
