The optimum reaction conditions with activation and graft copolymerization two steps were explored. First, 5 grams CAGB with 2.5 mm initial diameter was initiated with 0.0493 mol/L K2S2O8 at 51 °C for 30 min in 15 mL 1 % PVA/H2O. Then 4.34 moi/L VAc was added dropwise and the reaction was allowed to proce at 48 °C for 3 h. The grafting efficiency could come up to 30%. It was found the stability of modified CAGB in the air and in electrolyte solutions was greatly improved.展开更多
