Functionalization of medium-chain-length poly(3-hydroxyalkanoates) as amphiphilic material by graft copolymerization with glycerol 1,3-diglycerolate diacrylate and its mechanism

Glycerol 1,3-diglycerolate diacrylate (GDD) was graft copolymerized onto poly(3-hydroxyoctanoate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate) P(3HO-co-3HHX) to render the latter more hydrophilic. Grafting of P(3HO-co-3HHX) backbone was performed using benzoyl peroxide as free radical initiator in homogenous acetone solut...
