Abstract
A new monomer, N-succinimido (N) thiocarbonyl acrylamide is formed whe n succinic anhydride, thiourea, and acryloyl chloride are condensed in mole proportions at low temperatures. The monomer is polymerized and graft copolymerized onto poly (vinyl alcohol) using a potassium bromat e-thiourea redox system. Acrylamide is also similarly grafted to poly (vinyl alcohol) using the same initiator system. Grafting efficiencies of the monomers are determined from the elemental analyses data of th e graft copolymers. Thermal behavior of the polymers are derived from the DSC thermograms of the polymers.
