IMPROVEMENTS IN OR RELATING TO PROCESSES FOR THE PRODUCTION OF COPOLYMERS

Patent ·
OSTI ID:4089593

A process for the grafting of random copolymers is described. The process consists of activating polyethylene with ionizing radiation and reacting the irradiated polymer simultaneously with at least two monomers, either styrene and acrylonitrile or ethylene and vinylidene chloride, which are capable of copolymerizing randomly with one another and which would form a copolymer of different constitution from the polyethylene.
