Radiation Graft Co-polymerization of Methacrylic Acid (MAA) onto Sago Starch Films

Abstract: In this work, the factors that may affect the gamma radiation-induced grafting of methacrylic acid monomer (MAA) onto sago starch films were investigated. The graft copolymers were characterized by tensile mechanical testing, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and infrared spectroscopy. The results showed that the highest grafting yield was obtained within the irradiation dosage level of 10-20 kGy and by using monomer concentration range of 15-20 wt%. The highest tensil… Show more

“…Kaur et al observed an increase in the crystalline nature of SG on grafting with AA . Similarly, Singh et al reported enhancement in crystallinity of sago starch on grafting with Acrylamide . While the same researcher, Kaur et al on studying sago starch grafted Acrylamide (SG‐g‐AAm) reported a change from crystalline to amorphous nature of the base polymer .…”
