【 摘 要 】

The mixture of synthetic and natural materials yields a material with improved physical-chemical properties. One way of obtaining this kind of material is through graft copolymerization. Some natural materials have been used in graft copolymerization with synthetic monomers. In this work, graft copolymerization of butyl acrylate (BA) onto starch using a redox initiator system was carried out. The graft yield was evaluated for different reaction conditions. The graft copolymer was characterized by infrared spectroscopy, thermal analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).
