Graft copolymerization of methyl methacrylate onto oil palm empty fruit bunch

Graft copolymerization of Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) onto Oil Palm Empty fruit Bunch (OPEFB) fiber has been successfully carried out using hydrogen peroxide (H2O) as an initiators and ferrous ammonium sulfate as catalyst in an aqueous medium. The effects of reaction temperature, reaction period and a...
