Degree of crystallinity of cellulose from a Populus standard after holocellulose pulping and hemicellulose removal by acid hydrolysis in 2.5 M HCl at various residence times as measured by a 13C CP sequence (◆) and 13C CP sequence with 6.5 ms 1H spin-lock filter (■). The dotted line represents the normal 4 h reaction time for hemicellulose removal typically employed. The error bars represent thee standard deviations of typical variation associated with the measurement.
