Grafting of acrylic acid onto methylcellulose

Sailes Mukhopadhyay, Jagdish Prasad, S. R. Chatterjee

Abstract

Abstract Grafting of acrylic acid onto methylcellulose backbone was studied using potassium persulfate as initiator. Different variables affecting the extent of grafting were studied. The copolymers with more than 20% grafting became insoluble in water. The solubility of the graft copolymer in different solvents and mixed solvents was studied.
