Table 1 Effective optimum conditions of grafting of EA and HEMA onto bleached and activated bleached jute fiber
From: Characterization of grafted jute fiber using acrylate monomers pretreated with alkali
Fiber type | Monomer | Monomer conc. (%) | Initiator conc. (%) | Catalyst conc. (%) | Reaction time (min) | Reaction temp. (°C) | Grafting yield (%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Bleached jute | EA | 80 | 4.5 | 5 | 90 | 60 | 22.5 |
Activated bleached jute | EA | 80 | 4.5 | 5 | 90 | 60 | 24.7 |
Bleached jute | HEMA | 70 | 4 | 4.5 | 90 | 60 | 26.6 |
Activated bleached jute | HEMA | 70 | 4 | 4.5 | 90 | 60 | 29.4 |
