Graft copolymer of tannin and polyvinyl alcohol with acrylic acid for the preparation of hydrophobic biodegradable film

Using CaCl2-H2O2 as the initiator, hydrophobic tannin-acrylic resin (TA) was prepared by grafting acrylic monomers onto tannins through redox reaction. Subsequently, biodegradable TA-polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) hydrophobic film (TAP) was prepared by blending TA with PVOH at room temperature. The result...
