“…Therefore, compatibilizer acts as a linkage between the petroleum based polymers and protein based polymers. The compatibilization effect on PE and several hydrophilic filler and polymer blends has been proven in several investigations [6–9].…”

Blends containing various percentages of linear low‐density polyethylene and soya powder were prepared. The effects of polyethylene‐graft‐(maleic anhydride) (PE‐g‐MA) as a compatibilizer and soya powder content on the natural weathering were investigated. Blends without PE‐g‐MA were used as controls. The soya powder was varied from 5 to 40 wt% of the blends, and PE‐g‐MA was used at 50 wt% based on soya powder content. The samples were exposed to natural weathering in the northern part of Malaysia for 1 year. Higher decreases in tensile strength and elongation at break of the controls were observed as compared to those of the PE‐g‐MA compatibilized blends after the natural weathering. The Young's modulus of both controls and compatibilized blends increased over the environmental exposure period. A control sample lost 8.8% of its original weight after 1 year of weathering, whereas a compatibilized blend lost 7.5 wt% during the same period. J. VINYL ADDIT.

“…It is known that polyamide-6 exhibits higher radiochemical stability relative to polyolefins [25]. Because these polymers are not miscible under classical chemical conditions, it may be expected that certain levels of cross-linking would be achieved in both components by γ-irradiation due to the diffusion of free radicals into each co-existing phase.…”

“…The X c was determined according the commonly known relationship: where Δ H m is the melting enthalpy for the polymer, calculated from the area under the peak of the DSC heating curve and Δ H o is the melting enthalpy for an entirely crystalline polymer. The reported Δ H o for PET is 140.1 J/g 9…”

The effect of gamma irradiation on the properties of virgin, waste poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), and their blends was characterized by IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry. The dye affinity for disperse dyes of the different PET polymers, before and after gamma irradiation was also studied. The results showed that the thermal stability of virgin, waste PET, and their blends was improved after gamma irradiation. The dye affinity for the disperse dye in terms of color intensity was improved after the exposure to gamma irradiation. The dye ability with disperse dye, in terms of color intensity (DE * ), for virgin/waste PET (80/20%) blend, as an example, was improved by $ 53 and 98% after the exposure to doses 30 and 50 kGy of gamma irradiation, respectively. In conclusion, the modification of waste PET or its blends with virgin PET by gamma irradiation may provide a practical method for the recycling to obtain useful products.
