... of deterioration as a result of aging. Microscopic examination revealed alterations in surface texture and cellulose fibers. There were noticeable changes in color values and total color difference (ΔE), as well as a decrease in pH levels. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated a reduction in cellulose crystallinity...
