Abstract

Abstract Gelatin was graft copolymerized with poly(butyl acrylate) using potassium peroxy disulfate in aqueous medium. Effects of temperature, time, monomer concentration, and backbone concentration were studied. The percent grafting was found to increase initially and then decreased in all cases. Infrared, viscosity, and thermal analysis were carried out on the graft copolymers, and the mechanism of the graft copolymerization reaction was discussed.
