| Summary: | Carboxymethyl starch (CMS) and carboxymethyl sago waste (CMSW) were
synthesized in completely heterogeneous conditions as a product of the reaction of sago
starch or sago waste and sodium monochloroacetate (CICH₂COONa) in isopropanol and
sodium hydroxide (NaOH). The influence of various parameters on the degree of
substitution (DS) was determined. The optimum conditions obtained for CMS were as
follows: NaOH concentration, 20% w/v; reaction time, 1 h; reaction temperature, 55°C;
and amount of CICH₂COONa, 1.5 mole. Meanwhile the optimum conditions for
carboxymethylation of sago waste were as follows: NaOH concentration, 25 % w/v;
reaction time, 2 h; reaction temperature, 55°C; and amount of CICI-bCOONa, 2.0 mole.
The DS and reaction efficiency (RE) under optimum conditions for CMS were 1.05 and·
85.9%, respectively, whereas for CMSW were 1.04 and 79.5%, respectively. |
