The new series of copolymers were obtained based on free radical solution copolymerization by mixing self‐made methyl acrylic acid sucrose ester (MASE) and methyl acrylic acid (MAA) with different ratios. Copolymerization behavior and properties of the new copolymers was investigated with the reaction time, temperature, monomer ratios and characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectra (FT‐IR), carbon nuclear magnetic resonance ( 13 C NMR), and intrinsic viscosity. The results indicated that sucrose was successfully grafted onto poly (methyl acrylic acid). Further, it was demonstrated that low temperature benefited the esterification of MASE. Importantly, the copolymers were founded to have good compatibility with polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), and polyethylene (PE). © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl.
