Abstract: Chitin gel beads were prepared, crushed into powder and grafted with poly(4- vinylpyridine) (P4VP) under nitrogen gas by using cerium ammonium nitrate(CAN) as a redox initiator under heterogeneous conditions in toluene. The effect of the amount of chitin, concentration of the monomer (4VP), amount of the initiator (CAN), reaction time and temperature on the grafting percent has been studied. The maximum grafting yield of poly (4-vinylpyridine) on to chitin beads was determined to be 380%. The optimum conditions were 0.10 g of chitin, 10 mL of (4VP) monomer, and 0.50 g of cerium ammonium nitrate (CAN) initiator at 60°C for one hour reaction time. The grafted samples were found to be soluble in aqueous acidic buffer solution (pH=1.2). The grafted and non grafted products were characterized by FTIR spectroscopy, SEM, DSC and C13 NMR analysis. Keywords: 4-vinylpyridine (4VP), chitin gel, redox initiated grafting.
ÖZ : Kitin jel boncuklar hazırlandıktan sonra ezilerek toz hale getirilmiş ve heterojen ortamda, seryum amonyum nitrat (CAN) başlatıcı kullanılarak azot atmosferinde poli(4-vinil piridin) (P4VP) ile toluen içinde aşılanmıştır. Kitin miktarı, monomer konsantrasyonu, başlatıcı konsantrasyonu, reaksiyon zamanı ve reaksiyon sıcaklığının aşılanma yüzdesi üzerindeki etkisi incelenmiştir. En yüksek aşılanma yüzdesi 0.10 g kitin, 10 mL 4VP, ve 0.50 g CAN kullanılarak 60°C sıcaklıkta bir saatlik reaksiyon süresi sonunda %380 olarak bulunmuştur. P4VP aşılanmış kitin örneklerinin asitli ortamda pH=1.2 tampon çözeltide çözündüğü gözlemlenmiştir. Aşılanmış ve aşılanmamış ürünler FTIR ve C-13 spektroskopisi yöntemleri ile ve DSC ve SEM analizi yapılarak karakterize edilmiştir. Anahtar Kelimeler: 4-vinilpiridin, kitin jel, redoks başlatıcı, aşılanma.
