Abstract: The influence of the reaction parameters like concentration of hydrolyzing agent (hydrochloric acid), duration of hydrolysis, and temperature of reaction on the bulk density and particle size of the microcrystalline cellulose powder (MCCP) has been investigated. Linear variation of bulk density of MCCP with respect to hydrochloric acid concentration, duration of hydrolysis and temperature have been observed. The highest bulk density of 0.3918 has been obtained for 4 N HCl, 2 h reaction and 60 ± 2°C temperature. The bulk density values lie in the range of 0.1265-0.3918 g/cm3.
