UV-INDUCED GRAFT POLYMERIZATION ON SURFACE UNDER HIGH-POWER UV IRRADIATION AND THE PROPERTIES OF THE SURFACE-GRAFTED POLYMER
Abstract
UV-induced graft polymerization of acrylic acid on the polypropylene film surface under high-power (750 mW/cm2 ) irradiation from UV-LEDs was investigated. The maximum amount of grafted polymer was reached in 30 s, while using low-power irradiation (10–15 mW/cm2 ) takes tens of minutes for the same amount of product. IR FTIR spectroscopy with different radiation penetration depth reflection elements of ZnSe–45° и Ge–45° showed the grafted polymer to be formed in a thin surface layer without any significant insertion throughout the film. Contact angle for water showed a minimum (21°) at 15 s of UV-irradiation time at small amounts of grafted polymer.
