Anionicity determined as the amount of sulfonate groups (mmol) per g (dry weight) of anionic cellulosic sample; PDI- polydispersity index of the hydrodynamic diameter distribution; anionic cellulose-based polyelectrolytes from bleached pulp or from wood wastes pulp with kappa number 26.7, respectively, ADACp and ADACw.
