Abstract
The derivatization of dialdehyde cellulose (DAC) has received increasing attention in the development of sustainable thermoplastics. In this study, a series of dialcohol celluloses were generated by borohydride reduction, which exhibited glass transition temperature (Tg ) values ranging from 23 to 109 °C, depending on the initial degree of oxidation (DO) of the DAC intermediate. However, the DAC derivatives did not exhibit thermoplastic behavior when the DO of the modified DAC was below 26 %. The influence of introduced side chains was highlighted by comparing DAC-based thermoplastic materials obtained by either oximation or borohydride reduction. Our results provide insights into the generation of DAC-based thermoplastics and highlight a strategy for tailoring the Tg by adjusting the DO during the periodate oxidation step and selecting appropriate substituents in subsequent modifications.

Abstract
The reductive amination of dialdehyde cellulose (DAC) with 2-picoline borane was investigated for its applicability in the generation of bioderived thermoplastics. Five primary amines, both aliphatic and aromatic, were introduced to the cellulose backbone. The influences of the side chains on the course of the reaction were examined by various analytical techniques with microcrystalline cellulose as a model compound. The obtained insights were transferred to a 39%-oxidized softwood kraft pulp to study the thermal properties of thereby generated high-molecular-weight thermoplastics. The number-average molecular weights (Mn) of the diamine celluloses, ranging from 60 to 82 kD, were investigated by gel permeation chromatography. The diamine celluloses exhibited glass transition temperatures (Tg) from 71 to 112 °C and were stable at high temperatures. Diamine cellulose generated from aniline and DAC showed the highest conversion, the highest Tg (112 °C), and a narrow molecular weight distribution (D̵ of 1.30).

Abstract
This dataset is related to the research article entitled ``A fast method to measure the degree of oxidation of dialdehyde celluloses using multivariate calibration and infrared spectroscopy''. In this article, 74 dialdehyde cellulose samples with different degrees of oxidation were prepared by periodate oxidation and analysed by Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIR). The corresponding degrees of oxidation were determined indirectly by periodate consumption using UV spectroscopy at 222 nm and by the quantitative reaction with hydroxylamine hydrochloride followed by potentiometric titration. Partial least squares regression (PLSR) was used to correlate the infrared data with the corresponding degree of oxidation (DO). The developed NIR/PLSR and FTIR/PLSR models can easily be implemented in other laboratories to quickly and reliably predict the degree of oxidation of dialdehyde celluloses.

Abstract
One of the main trends in developing bio-based materials is to improve their mechanical and physical properties using MFC derived from sustainable natural sources and compatible low-cost chemicals. The strength of anionic MFC based materials can be increased with addition of multivalent cations. However, direct mixing of solutions of multivalent cations with oxidized MFC may result in immediate, uncontrollable fibril aggregation and flock formation. The aim of this study was to design a method where Ca2+ ions liberate from solid CaCO3 particles on bleached hardwood (birch) kraft pulp, which was mixed with oxidized MFC and crosslink it to tailor the mechanical properties of the dried structure. In few minutes after adding acetic anhydride, pH of the wet film dropped from 7.3-4.8 through liberation of acetic acid and CaCO3 particles solubilized releasing Ca2+. The novel method could be applied on industrial scale for improving the performance of packaging materials.
