Influence of glycine on the kinetics of the graft copolymerization of acrylonitrile onto jute fibers initiated by ceric ion

摘要

AbstractA study of the influence of glycine on the graft copolymerization of acrylonitrile (AN) onto jute fiber using ceric ion has been made. The effect of concentrations of monomer, Ce (IV), and glycine on graft yield have been studied. In addition, the effect of time, temperature, acid, and the amount of jute fiber on graft yield has been investigated. On the basis of experimental findings, a qualitative reaction mechanism has been proposed and the optimum condition for effective grafting has been suggested.
