IMPROVEMENTS IN PROCESSES FOR GRAFTING ON POLYMERS
Polymers may be coated with radioinduced graft polymerization films by conducting the irradiation with the polymer in a gaseous phase composed of a mixture of the polymerizable monomer and a softening agent to increase the degree of grafting. This method of grafting is generally applicable to polymers of all kinds and unsaturated polymerizable monomers, and a list of such polymers and monomers is given. Eleven examples of this method are given in which glycol polyterephthalate, polyvinyl alcohol, and cellulose acetate are used as the base polymer; vinyl acetate, acrylonitrile, vinylmethyldichlorosilane, and methyl methacrylate are used as the monomer; and water, methylethyl ketone, alcohol, and benzene are used as softening agents.
