Abstract

An attempt has been made to graft a hydrophylic monomer of N,N.dimethyl acrylamide (DMAA) onto natural rubber (NR) tube by simultaneous, per-oxidation and preirradiation grafting techniques. It was found that the grafting by simultaneous grafting technique results a maximum 29 wt% degree of grafting and by peroxidation and preirradiation techniques, results the maximum 42 wt% and 13 wt% degree of grafting, respectively. It was concluded that the peroxidation technique is the most appropriate to obtain a high degree of grafting in radiation copolymerization of DMAA onto NR.
