Modified natural polymers have been gaining increasing scientific interest for many years. In this study carboxymethyl starch (CMS) was grafted with L(+)-lactic acid (LA) in different molar ratios CMS/LA (1/36, 1/22 and 1/12), resulting carboxymethyl starch-g-poly(lactic acid) (CMS-g-PLA) copolymers. The grafting reaction was carried out by solution polycondensation procedure in toluene and stannous 2-ethyl hexanoate Sn(Oct)(2) as catalyst was utilized. Poly(lactic acid) (PLA) was synthesized in the same conditions with the copolymers for comparative analyses of the physico-chemical and thermal properties. The copolymers and PLA were structurally and morphologically characterized by FT-IR, H-1-NMR spectroscopy, WAXD and SEM analyses, taking CMS as reference. The molecular weight of the copolymers, CMS and PLA were determined, using a dynamic light scattering technique. The thermal behavior of the products was studied by DSC and TG-DTG analyses. The CMS-g-PLA graft copolymers exhibited lower Tg and thermal stability than pure CMS.
