Reaktionsschritte

2.33 Grams (10 mmol) of L-lysine methyl ester dihydrochloride was dissolved in 5.0 ml of water to prepare a treating agent solution. A cotton cloth (150 mm×170 mm, 4.8 g) was in advance treated to be immersed in 25% aqueous sodium hydroxide solution for an hour at room temperature, washed with water and dried. This treated cotton cloth was allowed to uniformly absorb the total amount of the above treating agent solution and then air-dried for 3 hours at room temperature. The dried cloth was heat-treated for 20 minutes at 140° C. in a batch type hot air oven (“IPHH-2000”, an inert oven manufactured by Tabaiesbeck Co., Ltd.) and washed with water. It was further washed with 5% aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and rinsed three times with water and subsequently was washed with 10% aqueous citric acid solution and rinsed three times with water, and finally washed with household washing detergent solution, rinsed with water and air-dried. The identification of L-lysine cellulose ester was conducted by the following method. A part of the cloth was cut and a solution of ninhydrin in butanol was sprayed on it. Thereafter, it was heated for 10 minutes in an oven of 110° C. to cause coloring thereby the presence of the amino acid was confirmed. Also, a part of the cloth was cut and subjected to an infrared spectroscopic analysis whereby there was confirmed a peak based on ester bond at 1720–1740 cm1. As a result of determination for the amount of the L-lysine bonded, it was 0.10 mmol based on 1 g of the cloth. The degree of esterfication was 0.016.
