The present study focused on investigating the catalytic mechanism of metal salts (sodium hypophosphite, sodium bisulfate and ammonium ferric sulfate) for esterification of bagasse cellulose carried out by mechanical activation-assisted solid phase reaction in a stirring ball mill. FTIR analysis of the products confirmed that these metal salts could catalyze the esterification of cellulose. XRD, SEM, FTIR, and ³¹P-NMR analyses of different samples indicated a synergistic effect between metal salt and ball milling, and the presence of metal salts enhanced the destruction on crystal structure of cellulose by mechanical force. The catalytic mechanism of three metal salts was difference: sodium bisulfate and ammonium ferric sulfate belonged to the catalytic mechanism of protonic acid and Lewis acid, respectively, while the catalytic mechanism of sodium hypophosphite was considered as that it could react with maleic acid to form active intermediates under ball milling.
