Utilization of Cassava Starch in Copolymerisation of Superabsorbent Polymer Composite (SAPC)

Abstract: Abstract. Cassava starch was used as the main chain in the copolymerization of a superabsorbent polymer composite (SAPC) based on acrylic acid and bentonite. The SAPC was synthesized through graft polymerization using nanosized bentonite as reinforcement. The variables in this experiment were: bentonite concentration, acrylic acid to starch weight ratio, concentration of initiator, and cross linker. The product was characterized using FTIR, SEM and TGA-DSC. The results show that the polymerization reactions in… Show more

“…A similar observation of the decreased viscosity of polymer solution at various temperatures is found in the literature, such as the viscosity of chitosan-AA-AM polymer that decreased from 350 to 220 cp with increasing temperature from 30 to 90 °C [16]. Starch-g-PAM viscosity decreased from 100 to 60 cp with increasing temperature from 24 to 80 °C [34], further supporting our finding.…”
