Abstract

Polymer science have gained the advancement for improving the range of applications. The grafting techniques of natural gums or polymers have been modified for monomers production to transport enhanced polymeric material. These modifications are important against various challenges. It provides enhanced stability, compatibility, flexibility, and rigidity for the synthesized/modified co-polymer. This review enumerates the grafting concept, grafting modification, grafting techniques and applications of grafted natural gums in drug delivery.
