The use of loomstate cotton fabric (starch sized fabric) as a substrate for grafting of methacrylic acid using KMnO 4 /citric acid as initiator provided an effective method with greater potentiality. Presence of starch size on the fabric helps the deposition of MnO 2 over the fabric with subsequent acceleration of the grafting reaction. Major factors affecting polymerization of MAA, such as KMnO 4 , citric acid and MAA concentrations, as well as reaction time and temperature of polymerization were studied. A tentative mechanism for the polymerization reaction is suggested.
