Bioremediation of Natural Fiber by Graft Copolymerization

Ashish Chauhan and Balbir Kaith

In this research paper, the Sorrel stem fiber was graft copolymerized by vinyl monomeric mixtures that lead to an increase in the percentage grafting with a significant change in physico-chemico-thermal resistance. Miscibility in organic solvents, hydrophobicity was found to increase whereas crystallinity, crystallinity index, dye-uptake and hydrophylicity decreased after graft copolymerization. These graft copolymers were reinforced in polymer matrix (Phenol-Formaldehyde) to procure green composite. These bio-composites were subjected to characterized and evaluated and were found to be advanced material.
