Research Abstract |
In this study, we investigated the degradation and surface modification of cellulose using mechano-chemical reaction. The mechano-chemically degradation of cellulose proceeded from the surface at the molecular level. Next, mechano-chemical reaction of cellulose and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) in a tube under vacuum showed the production of block copolymer of cellulose-block-poly(HEMA). Furthermore mechano-chemical reaction of benzyl cellulose and HEMA in a tube under vacuum also produced the block copolymer, whereas the tacticity of HEMA polymerized varied as compared with the case of cellulose.
