Demineralized xenogeneic bone (DXB). was prepared from bovine cortical tibia and graft copolymerized with glycidylmethacrylate (GMA) using a combination of potassium persulfate (K2S2O8) and sodium metabisulfite (Na2S2O5)as redox initiating system in aqueous medium. To optimize the reaction condition, the concentrations of backbone, monomer, initiator, temperature and time were varied. The percent grafting was found to increase initially and thereafter decrease in most of the cases. The optimum temperature and time were found to be 40degreesC and 180 minutes, respectively. The grafting results have been discussed and a reaction mechanism is proposed. Functional groups and structural changes of the graft copolymer were determined by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopic method for proof of grafting and the results are discussed.
