Description
A group of polysaccharides found in plants. Hemicelluloses are sugar containing polymers with longer chains than simple sugars but shorter chain lengths than cellulose. Wood contains 28-35% hemicellulose primarily composed of beta and gamma cellulose. Hemicellulose improves cohesiveness in paper. Examples of some types of hemicellulose are beta cellulose, gamma cellulose, agar, algin, and pectin.
Synonyms and Related Terms
hemicellulose (Fr.); hemicelulosa (Esp.); hemicelulose (Port.); emicellulosa (It.)
