Abstract	The effect of chemical treatment i.e. bleaching, alkalization and graft copolymerization on the morphology changes of okra bast fiber has been investigated by means of infrared spectroscopy (IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), water absorption and tensile properties measurements. The graft copolymerization reaction of bleached fiber with acrylonitrile monomer (AN) has been carried out under the catalytic influence of K$_{2}$S$_{2}$O$_{8}$ and FeSO$_{4}$ redox system. The maximum graft yield (11.43 %) has been found at 70°C temperature, 3×10$^{−2}$ mol/l acrylonitrile, 5×10$^{−3}$ mol/l K$_{2}$S$_{2}$O$_{8}$, 5×10$^{−3}$ mol/l FeSO$_{4}$ and for 90 min. On the contrary, the fiber has been treated with 10 % NaOH solution, which is much effective to remove the impurities. Based on findings of water absorption, tensile properties and SEM micrograph, the AN-grafted fiber has been showed better properties than bleached and alkali treated fibers. The degree of modification of okra bast fiber by chemical treatment has been evaluated by IR measurement.
