The post-irradiation oxidation of polypropylene. II: Influence on the mechanical properties

Crystalline structure of polypropylene in blends with thermoplastic elastomers after electron beam irradiation

“…For this reason the experimental results quoted by various authors are sometimes contradictory. The use of different elastomers, such as EPM or EPDM copolymers, as polypropylene impact modifiers can disturb the PP crystallization after irradiation (Dongyuan et al, 1990;Geuskens and Nedelkos, 1996).…”
