polyrethanes,or by chemical modification of polymers
produced by this process (for example, poly(vinyl alcohol)
prepared by the hydrolysis of poly(vinyl acetate)); or
(b)By dissolution or chemical treatment of natural organic
polymers(for example,cellulose) to produce polymers such as
cuprammonium rayon (cupro) or viscose rayon, or by
chemical modification of natural organic polymers(for
example,cellulose,casein and other proteins, or alginic
acid), to produce polymers such as cellulose acetate or
alginates.
