Abstract
Graft copolymers of acrylonitrile and of acrylic acid monomers on cellulosic materials were obtained by use of ceric ion initiator in aqueous medium at a 50% (w/w) cellulose‐monomer ratio. The variations of poly(acrylonitrile) grafts and of the efficiency of grafting with ceric ion concentration, and of poly(acrylic acid) grafts with temperature are examined. The dependence of water retention capacity of the grafted fibers with the graft level is reported.Keywords
