BIODEGRADATION BEHAVIOR OF POLY(METHYL METHACRYLATE) GRAFTED SAGO STARCH BIOPOLYMER

The graft copolymerization of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) onto sago starch (sago starch-g-PMMA) was carried out using ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) as an initiator. PMMA was grafted onto sago starch using CAN as an initiator under nitrogen gas atmosphere. The maximum percentage of grafting (...
