The radiation-induced graft polymerization of butadiene onto poly(vinyl chloride) powder was studied. By the kinetic treatment of elementary reactions the values of k/sub p/ and K/sub t/(Z) of the graft polymerization were obtained. The activation energy of the propagation was calculated as 16.0 kcal mole/sup -1/. The value of k/sub p/ was proportional to the 0.42 power of the dose rate and that of k/sub t/(Z) was proportional to the 0.84 power of the dose rate.
