Abstract

Solid-phase grafting of 4-vinyl pyridine onto isotactic polypropylene (IPP) resulted in 12.7% grafting at optimized conditions. The chain transfer mechanism with solvent for termination of the growing chain resulted in a decreased percentage of grafting with increased concentration of the interfacial agent. Graft copolymers were characterized by spectral and thermal studies and were observed to be thermally stable.
