The furfural constants of the lignocellulose are unaffected by the acetylation and condensation.

The results confirmed those of Cross and Bevan first obtained with the typical lignocellulose (jute).

There is considerable hydrolysis of the lignocellulose to soluble products.

Calculating per 100 of the original lignocellulose this becomes 16.

This 'pectin' is therefore a form of soluble lignocellulose.
