This paper presents a study on biocidal effect of polymer nanocomposite films of gamma
irradiated polypropylene (PP) and silver nanoparticles. The modified polypropylene was …

A grafting monomer (p-(3-butenyl) styrene, BS)) containing two carbon–carbon double-
bonds with different reactivity was used in melt radical reaction to prepare long chain …

High energy radiation processing has proven to be remarkably effective in enhancing the
properties of polymeric materials. Specially, electron beam (E-beam) radiation stands out as …

The aim of this study was to investigate the susceptibility of Staphylococcus aureus and
Escherichia coli biofilms formed on the polypropylene surface. The cultures were developed …

Blends of two long-chain branched polypropylenes (LCB-PP) and five linear polypropylenes
(L-PP) were prepared in a single screw extruder at 240° C. The two LCB-PPs were self …

Isotactic polypropylene (iPP) undergoes crosslinking and extensive main chain scissions
when submitted to irradiation. The simultaneous irradiation of PP and acetylene is able to …

A technique has been developed to modify the melt properties of polypropylene (PP).
Photoinitiators along with UV irradiation were employed to introduce long chain branching …

High melt strength polypropylene (HMS-PP) with a long-chain branched structure is a
modified form of polypropylene (PP) which has basic properties of regular PP but with …

The miscibility of linear polypropylene (L-PP) and long-chain branched polypropylene (LCB-
PP) blends was studied in relation to the rheological behavior in shearing and elongational …

Effect of copper N, N-dimethyldithiocarbamate (CDD) on melt reactions during preparing
long chain branched polypropylenes (LCB-PP) via free radical grafting was studied. The …
