Synthesis and Characterization of Poly(Methyl Methacrylate) -Grafted-Cellulose Nanofiber

Article Preview

Abstract:

Poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)-graft-cellulose nanofibers (CeNFs) (PMMA-g-CeNF) were synthesized by means of graft-polymerization using Azo initiator in aqueous medium. The synthesized grafted fibers were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Then, PMMA-g-CeNF were hydrolyzed by acid hydrolysis method with different acid constant and hydrolysis time and characterized by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Finally, PMMA-g-CeNF was characterized by thermo-gravimetric and differential thermal analyses (TG-DTA).
