Abstract

Mohammad Sadeghi1, Fatemeh Soleimani1 and Mojgan Yarahmadi2


Abstract:

The graft copolymerization of acrylamide(AAm) onto Carboxymethyl cellulose in aqueous medium was investigated, using Ceric Ammonium Nitrate (CAN). The graft copolymer was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectra. The effects of reaction variables, such as concentration of the initiator, monomer and CMC were investigated, and the grafting conditions were optimized.

Keywords:

CMC; Acrylamide; Graft copolymerization; Ceric Ammonium Nitrate
