โœฆ Synopsis


Polypropylene (PP) functionalization with vinyltriethoxysilane (VTES) was accomplished via a free radical process in a melt-mixer chamber, using dicumyl peroxide as the initiator. Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry (RBS), and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) were used to follow silane incorporation and product molecular weights. The influence of silane (0 -10.0 wt %) and peroxide (0 -1.0 wt %) concentrations on the functionalization degree and molecular weight of products was investigated. Chain-breaking reactions were present in all experiments, evidenced by smaller product molecular weights. This decrease was more pronounced for higher peroxide concentrations. Silane incorporation occurred even in peroxide absence, and it was seen to increase with increasing silane concentration.

Polypropylene is the polymer with the fastest-growing usage rate, owing to its low price combined with properties that have been improved over recent years. However, because it does not carry any functional groups, it has little interaction with useful components of many systems, and it is difficult
