Abstract
AbstractPoly(vinyl chloride) was dehydrochlorinated in alkali solution and then grafted with 2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) using benzoyl peroxide as a free‐radical initiator under a nitrogen atmosphere. The investigations involved examining the effects of grafting efficiency on various conditions, such as degree of dehydrochlorination, HEMA concentration, solvent effect, and reaction time. Maximum grafting to the extent of 57.2% was obtained. The mixed solvent grafting was attempted. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
