GRAFT COPOLYMERIZATION IN THE PRESENCE OF BENZOYL PEROXIDE-DIMETHYL ANILINE WITH THE AID OF IRRADIATION

Journal Article · · Intern. Chem. Eng.
OSTI ID:4790984

The extent of irradiation graft copolymerization can be increased if the monomer contains an initiator-activator and is able to swell the polymer membrane. Such is the situation in the systems: polyethylene-methyl methacrylate and polyvinyl chloride-vinyl acetate in the presence of benzoyl peroxide-dimethyl aniline. This copolymerization is dependent upon the intensity of irradiation and the concentration of the initiator-activator. Under similar experimental circumstances, vinyl acetate could not be grafted on polyethylene, while the grafting of styrene on polyethylene is but little influenced by the presence of an initiator-activator. The irradiation homopolymerization in the presence of benzoyl peroxide-dimethyl aniline is dependent upon the initiator-activator concentration, while the intensity of x-ray irradiation has only a small effect.
