The radiation initiated grafting of N-vinylpyrrolidone (NVP) acrylamide (AAm) and their mixtures onto polypropylene (PP) Γlms using a direct radiation technique has been investigated. Di β erent solvents were used for diluting the monomers and it was found that dioxane was suitable for this grafting

β¦ Synopsis
Liquid phase ultraviolet irradiation in the presence of benzophenone as a photosensitizer and barium hydroxide as a pH controller were used to graft the mixtures of acrylic acid and acrylamide to a polypropylene surface. The surface of the grafted polypropylene samples were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy-attenuated total reflectance, electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and a contact angle meter. The pH value of the reaction medium that produced the graft with equal molar ratio was found to be Ο³ 3.77. The optimal reaction condition was found at a monomer feed of 25%, a reaction time of 30 min, and a benzophenone concentration of 1%. Surface tension of the samples increased to a value of 40 dyn cm Οͺ1 due to the graft of the hydrophilic monomers.

The graft copolymerization of acrylic acid (AA) onto guar gum (GOH) was carried out by a peroxydiphosphate (PDP)-silver(I) system. Grafting ratio, efficiency, add-on, and conversion increase upon increasing the concentration of PDP and acrylic acid, whereas they decrease upon increasing the concentr
Polypropylene (PP) Γlms were grafted with N-phenylmaleimide using c-radiation. The e β ect of both monomer concentration and dose rate on the degree of grafting was measured. Characterization of the grafted PP Γlms included IR spectroscopy, X-ray spectroscopy, electrical conductivity, mechanical prop
In order to obtain required polymer materials, acrylic acid was grafted onto powdered isotactic polypropylene by an electron beam preirradiation technique. All processes (including irradiation, storage of the samples, and grafting polymerization) were carried out in air. The effects of irradiation d
