A COMPARATIVE STUDY ON FUNCTIONALIZATION OF CELLULOSIC BIOFIBER BY GRAFT COPOLYMERIZATION OF ACRYLIC ACID IN AIR AND UNDER MICROWAVE RADIATION

Graft copolymerization of Grewia optiva fiber with acrylic acid (AAc) was carried out by using a Ce(IV) redox initiator under two different conditions, i.e. in air and under the influence of microwave radiation. Different reaction conditions affecting grafting percentage (Pg) for both methods were o...
