Abstract
The gamma radiation‐induced surface graft copolymerizations of styrene—acrylonitrile and styrene—methyl acrylate to Teflon were studied. It was observed that the compositions of the various grafted copolymers are richer in the more polar monomer than one would predict from the Lewis‐Mayo copolymer composition equation. These results were interpreted in terms of a preferential solvation of the relatively immobile growing graft polymer free radicals by the polar monomers.

Modification of polypropylene fiber was carried out by graft copolymerization of acrylonitrile monomer using the preirradiation method. The influence of synthesis conditions (preirradiation dose, monomer concentration, temperature, draw ratio, and storage) on the degree of grafting was investigated.
