text: Cellulose has no taste, is odorless, is hydrophilic with the contact angle of 20–30 degrees, is insoluble in water and most organic solvents, is chiral and is biodegradable.
text: Cellulose is an insoluble fiber that your body doesn't have the enzymes to digest.
text: Cellulose is considered insoluble because it does not bind with water nor change form in the digestive tract.
text: Cellulose and lignin are types of insoluble fiber.

text: Dissolving pulps are produced through processes that yield high α-cellulose content (i.e. the cellulose that is insoluble in 18% NaOH) with compositions that may range from 90–99% cellulose, lignin and extractives below 0.2%, and hemicelluloses comprising the balance .
text: Cellulose is insoluble in water and most organic solvents.
text: Cellulose is a biodegradable, renewable, non-meltable polymer which is insoluble in most solvents due to hydrogen bonding and crystallinity.
text: The strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds between the hydroxyl groups lead to highly ordered crystalline regions with low accessibility to reactants which explains why cellulose is water insoluble and why strong alkalis like caustic soda are required to break down the structure to make the hydroxyl groups accessible to reactants.
text: Cellulose itself is both crystalline and hydrogen bonded, so is insoluble and cannot be melted.
text: Cellulose is insoluble in water and aqueous solutions.
text: Chitin and cellulose are insoluble in water.
