| Research Abstract |
The effect of ultraviolet (UV) light illumination on the yield of radiation-induced graft polymerization onto polypropylene was examined. The yield observed for the polymer irradiated successively with X-ray and UV was found to be higher than that observed for the polymer irradiated only with X-ray. The author proposed a mechanism of the yield improvement caused by UV illumination on the basis of the present and previous studies; the improvement is caused by thephoto-induced isomerization of hydrocarbon polymer radicals.
