In accordance with the newly developed homogeneous periodate oxidation procedure, we prepared high cleavage level 2, 3-dialcohol cellulose (DAC) which gives off a clear and transparent film. Viscoelastic properties of DAC were investigated in relation to those of cellulose. Dynamic mechanical measurements for DAC at 110Hz over the temperature range from -150&deg;C to 150&deg;C revealed two kinds of relaxation processes, which were respectively centered around -70&deg;C and 112&deg;C. The first process at -70&deg;C was related to dielectric relaxion, and was regarded to be, similar to the process in cellulose, due to the motion of methylol groups. On the other hand, the cleavage of C<sub>2</sub>-C<sub>3</sub> bonds of the glucopyranose ring resulted in the process at around 112&deg;C, while no comparable process has been reported for cellulose in the similar region. This process was ascribed to the micro- Brownian motion along the main chain. From the temperature variation of the stress-elongation diagrams, the glass transition temperature Tg for DAC was estimated to be about 80&deg;C. The DAC film above Tg showed a marked elongation reaching 200% at 112&deg;C.
