✦ Synopsis
Ethyl acrylate was grafted onto monofilament poly(ethylene terephthalate) fibers using benzoyl peroxide as a chemical initiator. Breaking tenacity and densities of grafted fibers decreased while breaking elongation increased with the graft yield. Scanning electron micrographs showed that the fiber geometry and its diameter were not affected by grafting.

The graft copolymerization of methyl methacrylate onto polyester fibers (PET) was investigated using tetravalent cerium as the initiator. The rate of grafting was found to increase progressively with the initiator and monomer concentrations up to 2.5 X 10-2M and 70.41 X 10-2M, respectively. The reac
