  Abstract: Abstract In this study, extracted cellulose fibres were successfully isolated from Leucaena leucocephala pods through an efficient alkaline treatment and bleaching method using different bleaching agents such as 5 wt.% of sodium chlorite (NaClO 2 ), 5 wt.% of oxalic acid (C 2 H 2 O 4 ), 5 wt.% of potassium permanganate (KMnO 4 ) and 5 wt.% of sodium hypochlorite (NaClO), respectively. The functional group of the cellulose fibres were analysed by using attenuated total reflection infrared (ATR-IR) spectroscopy. The ATR-IR spectra reported that the Leucaena leucocephala fibres after being given chemical treatment with 5%w/w of NaClO lead the similar functional group with the commercial cellulose due to removal hemicellulose and lignin. The content cellulose of final product was 89.4% was measured by the chemical composition test. Meanwhile, the whiteness index of Leucaena leucocephala fibres treated with 5 wt.% NaClO was 78.5%, which was the highest. The results of ATR-IR, chemical composition test and whiteness index were indicated that the sample of Leucaena leucocephala pods presents the structure of cellulose.
