✦ Synopsis


The effect of hydrogen peroxide on the physicochemical properties of semicrystalline poly ( vinyl alcohol) ( PVA ) has been investigated. Significant and irreversible increases in equilibrium water swelling, dissolved oxygen permeability, and surface wettability have been observed in PVA samples treated with concentrated hydrogen peroxide. Based on the small amount of carbonyl content detected and the crystallinity reduction in hydrogenperoxide-treated poly (vinyl alcohol) samples, a mechanism involving a combination of hydrogen-peroxide-induced oxidative chain scission and dissolution of crystalline regions in poly (vinyl alcohol) is proposed for the observed swelling kinetics and associated changes in polymer properties.

The grafting of acrylamide onto poly(ethy1ene terephthaiate) fibers using hydrogen peroxide as the redox initiator was investigated. Benzyl alcohol was found to be the favorite medium for this grafting. Maximum graft yield (7.6%) was reached at 95Β°C; the graft yield decreased at higher temperatures,
