Absorption bands in the near‐infrared (NIR) spectrum of cellulose were correlated with crystalline and noncrystalline regions and used to derive a new crystallinity ratio. NIR crystallinity ratios of both natural and regenerated celluloses were measured and compared with x‐ray diffraction values. The data indicates that the NIR crystallinity ratio may also depend upon crystallite size.
