Muttertag 2024 Schweizer'S Reagent. Schweizer's reagent is the metal ammine complex with the formula [cu(nh3)4(h2o)2](oh)2. It is prepared by dissolving copper(ii) hydroxide in a solution of ammonia. A video about how the schweizer's reagent is synthesised, how cellulose is dissolved in this reagent and how the cuprammonium rayon can be formed.
It was kind of a spur of the moment deal, the voiceover is kind of clunky, but i’m happy with the way it turned out. Dissolution of cellulose in schweizer’s reagent is studied experimentally and theoretically.
