Abstract

Graft copolymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) onto chemically modified jute fibers has been studied using the Fe2+-H2O2 (Fenton's reagent) redox initiator system. The effects of reaction time, temperature, and varying concentrations of monomer, Fe2+, H2O2, sulfuric acid and amount of jute fiber on graft yield have been studied, as well as the effects of some organic solvents and inorganic salts on graft . yield. Optimum conditions for affording maximum grafting are evaluated and the percent grafting is expressed as functions of different reaction variables.
