Abstract
- MDPE- g-MAH copolymers were prepared with MDPE (medium density polyethylene) and MAH (maleic anhydride) under different irradiation doses of high-energy electron accelerator, and FTIR spectra confirmed their structure. The effect of the different contents of MDPE- g-MAH copolymers on properties of MDPE/CaCO system is studied intensively. By adding 4 Phr (parts per hundred of resin) MDPE- g-MAH in MDPE/CaCO system under irradiation dose of 0.7 MGy, the tensile strength increases from 16.3 MPa to 19.9 MPa, and elongation at break increases from 437% to 518%. SEM images show the domain size of CaCO in MDPE- g-MAH systems becomes small. Definitely, MDPE- g-MAH copolymer could improve the compatibility of MDPE/CaCO system effectively. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
