Abstract
Kinetic data (rate constant, Arrhenius activation energy, frequency fa ctor) of the esterification of polycarboxylic acids (butane-1, 2, 3, 4 -tetracarboxylic acid, citric acid and pyromellitic acid) have been de termined by means of isocratic HPLC measuring the portion of polycarbo xylic acid that does not react with cellulosic material. The order of activation energy is as follows: citric acid > butane-1, 2, 3, 4-tetra carboxylic acid > pyromellitic acid.
