Abstract
Summary: Electrokinetic investigations of different cellulosic fibres were reviewed with special emphasis on polymer composite materials and textile applications of cellulose fibres. The possibilities in the interpretation of zeta-potential data regarding chemical and physical modification, specific adsorption, swelling and changes in hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity of cellulose polymers are discussed. Using recent data from literature, advantages and limitations of electrokinetic measurements of oriented polymers are described, finding that the zeta-potential is a valuable parameter in polymer surface characterisation.
