Thermal discoloration of cellulose (Avicel PH-101 and Whatman No. 42 filter paper) was studied in N2 at 160–280 °C with glycerol-treated and NaBH4-reduced samples, to understand the role of the reducing end. Thermal discoloration of glycerol-treated Avicel PH-101, in which some of the reducing ends were converted into glycosides (non-reducing ends), was suppressed compared with the original cellulose, and the level of suppression was directly related to the extent of glycosylation of the reducing ends. The stabilization efficiency of glycerol-treated Whatman No. 42 filter paper suggested that the reducing ends newly formed by reduction of the degree of polymerization (DP) (to about 200) during heat treatment contributed to the discoloration. The important role of the reducing ends in thermal discoloration was supported by the stabilization of Avicel PH-101 by reduction with NaBH4 (giving a reducing end content that was 2% of that of the original cellulose). Thermally induced discoloration was also inhibited by heating cellulose in suspension in the polyether tetraethyleneglycol dimethylether, which has been reported to inhibit the thermal degradation of reducing sugars.
