The present invention provides for a dispersion containing cellulose particles dispersed in a continuous liquid phase comprising a first and a second continuous liquid phase, wherein the first continuous liquid phase consists of a liquid swelling agent or an aqueous solution of said liquid swelling agent, and the second continuous liquid phase comprises, preferably consists of, one or more organic solvents, with the proviso that the one or more organic solvents of the second continuous liquid phase are not capable of dissolving cellulose, have a boiling point higher than the boiling point of the first continuous liquid phase, and are miscible with the constituents of the swelling composition. |
