“…Using the ionising radiation technique, styrene can be successfully grafted onto wool with little homopolymerization. For this purpose, the styrene needs to be dissolved in a swelling solvent, such as, methanol (Dilli, Garnett et al 1972). Nevertheless, this technique is not applicable to other monomers, particularly acrylates, because the high amount of copolymer formation occurs and prevents the successful wool grafting.…”

Internal deposition of specific monomers into the wool structure can alter its physiochemical properties, such as, improving thermal and mechanical stability, or improving the chemical resistance. Wool has a number of functional pendant groups e.g., thiol, amino and hydroxyl with the ability to form bonds with various vinyl monomers. There are number of irradiation and chemical based methods for the initiation of the grafting including metal and non-metal ion oxidisers and hydroperoxides. In this review, the techniques that are available for the internal deposition of the different monomers into the wool structure were reviewed with a focus on the properties of the grafted wool, such as, the thermal stability and the chemical and mechanical properties. The major grafting mechanisms are summarized and the effect of important parameters on the grafting reaction are discussed. These include time, temperature, pH and the concentration of grafting initiators and the monomers.

“…The use of solvents as additives in the reaction medium has been observed to be a major factor in governing the equilibrium degree of grafting. [10][11][12] showed that methanol addition during the grafting of styrene into polypropylene shows an accelerative effect on the degree of grafting with a maxima at 70% methanol. Such behavior was found to be associated with the "Tromsdorff effect" arising in the system.…”

“…1,2 The preparation of ion-exchange membranes by radiation-induced graft copolymerization of monomers into polymeric films has proved to be a very effective method. [10][11][12] showed that methanol addition during the grafting of styrene into polypropylene shows an accelerative effect on the degree of grafting with a maxima at 70% methanol. Moreover, membranes with desired characteristics may be produced by proper control of the dose and dose rate of the radiation.…”
