AbstractStyrene was graft‐copolymerized onto wood cellulose by the ceric ion method of Mino and Kaizerman. The grafting reaction was found to depend strongly on the concentration of ceric ion in the grafting system and maximum grafting occurred in a narrow range of concentration of initiator, 1.0 × 10−3‐1.8 × 10−3mol/l, at 58 ± 1°C. A pretreatment technique, developed to enhance the monomer diffusion into cellulose, was found to increase the grafting considerably. The structures of the cellulose‐styrene graft copolymers were studied by hydrolyzing away the cellulose backbone to isolate the grafted polystyrene branches. The molecular weight and the molecular weight distributions of the grafted polystyrene were determined using gel permeation chromatography. The number‐average molecular weight (M̄n) ranged from 23,000 to 453,000 and the polydispersity ratios (M̄w/M̄n) varied from 2.5 to 8.0. The grafting frequencies calculated from the per cent grafting and molecular weight data were of the order of 0.05–0.4 polystyrene branches
