Abstract
In this paper, the graft copolymerization of methyl methacrylate onto starch using acety-lacetonate copper (II) uomplex as initiator was studied. The percentage and efficiency of grafting were investigated by varping the concentrations of initiator, monomer and starch, various acids, trichloroacetic acid, and the reaction temperature. By varying these reaction parameters, the percentage and efficiency of grafting could be adjusted effectively.
