Poly(methyl methacrylate) modified Starch: their preparations, properties and applications

Plastic wastes are generally not easily degradable under the action of environmental components. They very much resistant to microbial attack too. These non-biodegradable plastics accumulate over a longer period time on earth leading pollution. However, this may be avoided by using biodegradable polymers. Thus demand for preparation polymers has grown up. In recent years, researchers have developed few from renewable sources; those find large application in field packaging, agriculture, and biomedical fields. Starch is one such biopolymer, modification which lead semi-synthetic polymer with good properties an edge biodegradability. Poly(methyl methacrylate) modifying agent as revealed literature search. This review report summarizes poly(methyl grafted starch via different physical chemical methods, their properties, applications.
