โฆ Synopsis
Graft copolymerization of methyl acrylate on dextrin in an aqueous medium was studied at 29 ยฐ using various concentrations of ceric ion as initiator. The dependence of the rate of grafting and extent of graft polymer formation on initiator concentration suggests that termination of graft copolymerization proceeds mainly by reaction of ceric ion with grafted chains. The relatively high frequency of grafting (up to 40 grafts per 104 units of anhydroglucose) indicate that dextrin is reactive towards graft polymer formation.
