Abstract
In the present work, a novel method was designed to develop an efficient and generally applicable technique for the creation of quaternary ammonium groups in nylon-6 macromolecules via polymerization of 2-methacryloxy ethyltrimethyl ammonium chloride (VQAs) in the presence of nylon-6 nonwoven fabrics using potassium persulphate (K2S2O8) as initiator. In addition factors affecting the extent and rate of polymerization (Rp) were investigated and the apparent activation energy was calculated. The reaction mechanism was suggested. Characterization of the grafted with PVQAs Nylon-6 nonwoven fabrics was investigated by X-ray, SEM, and FT-IR.
