The structural features of the grafting of maleic anhydride onto low-molecular-weight compounds have been elucidated using several spectroscopic and analytical techniques. Conclusive evidence for the occurrence of singly grafted anhydride residues in multiply grafted products has been established us

## Abstract Low density polyethylene (LDPE) was reacted with benzoyl peroxide (BPO) and 2,2,6,6βtetramethylβlβpiperidinyloxy (TEMPO) to prepare a latent macroinitiator, PEβTEMPO. Little polymer was synthesized when maleic anhydride (MAH) was bulk polymerized in the presence of the PEβTEMPO. However
Grafting reactions were performed in a Haake torque rheometer, according to a central composite experimental design, where the maleic anhydride and peroxide concentrations, rotor speed, and reaction time were varied. The 27 formulations were analyzed by Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy and
