An impact on mechanochemical activation on morphology and structure of wood cellulose was examined. A comparative analysis of structure of sheet cellulose and fluffed cellulose was made using infrared spectroscopy and scanning microscopy. It was given that the cellulose I tranformed into a modification of cellulose II with more reacting power as a result of pulping. It ascertained that mechanochemical activation of the cellulose can increase the physical and chemical indicators of technical carboxymethylcellulose.
