The PGMA was effectively used as a precursor for the development of many novel and advanced materials with enhanced properties lead to diverse applications. For instance, the incorporation of nanoparticles in PGMA exhibited progressive properties. Nevertheless, homogeneous distribution of nanoparticles in polymers is not that much simple due to their tendency to get aggregate. Whereas, the homogeneous distribution of nanoparticles in the PGMA is quite easy due to its grafting ability. The design, development and characterization of PGMA based novel materials for improved properties and apply those materials for diverse problems has gained a great interest among the researchers from the past one decade. This review highlights the insights on different methods of preparation of PGMA based materials to attain the desired properties and provide useful information about the characteristic features of the PGMA microspheres.

The experimentation is carried out using a 3 × 3 factorial design and the tensile behavior (tensile strength and elongation) of composites is analyzed by response surface methodology (RSM). The tensile strength of pectin containing 10% glycerol is 11.48 MPa which is increased to 19.34 MPa by incorporation of 15% luffa fiber and this composition is optimized with desirability index method (simultaneously optimization) to achieve the best results for elongation at break (188.89%) as well. The interactions between constituents of composites are characterized by FTIR spectro-scopy and scanning electron microscopic study reveals a uniform distribution of fiber. The composites have sustained thermal stability as all composites are stable up to 260°C in an inert atmosphere under TGA study.
