Graft copolymerization of vinyl monomers on modified cottons. XVIII. Grafting of methyl methacrylate and acrylonitrile on cotton treated with N‐methylol crosslinking agents using tetravalent cerium as initiator

Abstract: SynopsisCeIv-induced grafting of methyl methacrylate and acrylonitrile on cotton fibers crosslinked with dimethylol ethylene urea, dimethylol dihydroxyethylene urea, and dimethylol carbamate was investigated. The graft yields obtained with crosslinked cotton were signifcantly lower than the untreated cotton, irrespective of the crosslinking agent and the monomer used. However, the extent and rate of grafting depended upon the degree of crosslinking and the nature of monomer. Based on the magnitude of grafting … Show more

“…The graft copolymerization of various alkylacrylates onto cellulose using different initiating agents 1-5 has been reported frequently, but investigations for grafting of ethyl acrylate monomer onto cellulose is limited . The high affinity of ethyl acrylate for grafting onto cellulose in comparison to methyl acrylate and methyl methacrylate has been attributed to the length of the ester alkyl group, which has increased its reactivity for grafting onto cellulose through electron-pumping capacity of ester ethyl group. The formation of small amount of homopolymer during graft copolymerization of ethyl acrylate is an indication that ethyl acrylate has more affinity for grafting in comparison to the formation of homopolymer.…”
