Abstract

Starch-g-poly(methyl acrylate-co-vinyl acetate) copolymers having a range of poly(vinyl acetate) contents, were prepared by a ceric-initiated grafting procedure identical to that used to prepare starch-poly(methyl acrylate). A rapid analytical method using FTIR spectroscopy has been developed to determine the poly(vinal acetate) content of polymer grafts as well as ungrafted homopolymer. Selected polymers have been extrusion-processed to yield continuous plastic ribbons and their tensile properties have been measured
