The effects of maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene (PP-g-MAH) addition on polypropylene (PP) and poly(acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene) (ABS) blends were studied. Blends of PP/ABS (70/30, wt%) with PP-g-MAH were prepared by a twin-screw extruder. From the results of mechanical testing, the impact, tensile and flexural strengths of the blends were maximized at a PP-g-MAH content 3 phr. The increased mechanical strength of the blends with the PP-g-MAH addition was attributed to the compatibilizing effect of the PP and ABS blends. In the morphological studies, the droplet size of ABS was minimized (6.6 ${\mu}m$) at a PP-g-MAH content of 3 phr. From the rheological examination, the complex viscosity was maximized at a PP-g-MAH content of 3 phr. These mechanical, morphological and rheological results indicated that the compatibility of the PP/ABS (70/30) blends is increased with PP-g-MAH addition to an optimum blend at a PP-g-MAH content of 3 phr.

미처리 Jute와 Hemp섬유와 처리된 Jute와 Hemp섬유가 강화된 polypropylene-maleic anhydride-g-polypropylene copolymer (PP-MAPP) 복합재료의 계면 물성을 미세역학시험법과 동적접촉각 측정을 통해서 평가하였다. Jute와 Hemp섬유의 통계적인 인장강도의 경우 두 형태 와이블 분포가 단일 형태 분포보다 더 일치하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 천연섬유 복합재료의 계면전단강도(IFSS)에 대한 산-염기 상호작용변수는 접착일($W_a$)의 계산을 통해 그 특성을 기술 할 수 있다. 천연섬유에 대한 알칼리, 실란커플링제의 영향은 PP-MAPP 기지재의 MAPP 함량을 변화시킴으로써 얻을 수 있었다. 알칼리 처리된 Jute와 Hemp섬유의 경우 약한 계면층이 모두 제거되고 표면적이 증가됨으로 인해 표면에너지는 더 증가하였다. 반면 실란 커플링제를 이용하여 표면 처리된 Jute와 Hemp 섬유의 경우 차단된 높은 에너지의 기들로 인해 표면에너지는 감소하였다. PP-MAPP기지재속의 MAPP의 함량증가는 산-염기 기의 도입으로 인해 표면에너지는 증가하였다. 두 천연섬유 복합재료의 미세파괴 형상은 두 섬유의 인장강도가 다르기 때문에 명확히 구분되었다.

폴리에틸렌-폴리프로필렌 혼합물의 열분해에 대한 시너지효과를 조사하기 위하여 폴리에틸렌(PE)과 폴리프로필렌(PP) 및 PE-PP혼합물의 저온열분해를 회분식 반응기를 이용하여 상압 및 $450^{\circ}C$에서 실행하였다. 열분해 시간은 20${\sim}$80분이었으며, 열분해로 생성된 성분은 한국석유품질검사소에서 고시한 증류성상온도에 따라 가스, 가솔린, 등유, 경유, 중유로 분류하였다. GC/MS에 의한 생성오일의 성분분석 결과 PE-PP 혼합에 의해서 새로운 성분이 검출되지 않았고 혼합에 따른 시너지효과 또한 나타나지 않았다. PE-PP 혼합물의 전환율과 각 생성물의 수율은 시료의 혼합비율에 비례하였다.

Polypropylene(PP) films were treated with plasma glow discharge to produce peroxy radicals on the surfaces. The peroxy radicals formed on the PP film surfaces were subsequently used for the graft polymerization of acrylic acid and acrylamide in an aqueous solution by heating, respectively. Introduction of acrylic acid and acrylamide on the PP film could be confirmed by the observation of carbonyl and primary amine absorptions based on carboxylic acid and amide, respectively. And introduction of functional group could be confirmed by weight analysis and ESCA. The water contact angle(90$^{\circ}$) of PP film was constant, irrespective of elapsed time, while plasma-treated and functional monomer-grafted PP films were slowly increased with elapsed time, showing the rearrangement of surface polar groups in air condition. The water contact angle$(90^\circ)$ of PP film was decreased by the plasma treatment$(56^\circ)$ and further decreased by the grafting of acrylic acid$(34^\circ)$ and acrylamide$(37^\circ)$, indicating increased hydrophilicity of the modified surfaces. The water contact angle of plasma-treated PP film increased a little as time elapsing. The half-life periods of surface voltage on acrylic acid-(31sec) and acrylamide-grafted PP(42sec) were significantly decreased when compared to those on PP(950sec) and plasma-treated PP film(241sec). In the experiments using acid, basic and disperse dyes, absorbance and $\Delta{E}$ values of functional monomer-grafted PP films were significantly increased than that of oxygen plasma-treated one.

The objective of this study is to give PP(polypropylene) fabric a good affinity for water. Oxygen plasma was treated to PP fabrics in a commercial glow discharge reactor with different RF power, discharge pressure, and reaction time. The PP fiber surfaces were characterized by the measurement of contact angle and ESCA. A JEOL scanning electron microscope was used to observe the surface morphology of fibers. The spontaneous water uptake amount of PP fabrics was determined by the demand wettability test. To determine the effect of aging on the surface properties of $O_2$ plasma treated PP, all the above measurements of the samples were carried out after 1, 7, 30, 60, and 150 days. The results are as follows. The PP fiber surfaces treated by $O_2$ plasma treatment have a chemical composition that consisted of various oxygen containing polar groups. Consequently, the contact angles of the treated PP fibers decreased, which improved the water uptake rate of PP fabrics. Surface roughness of the treated PP affected the fabric wettabiity as well. Wettability of the treated PP decreased and leveled off with aging. The $O_2$ plasma treatment is a simple and effective method to increase the water uptake rate of PP fabrics.

The branched polypropylene (b-PP) was prepared by melt blending process with initiator, antioxidant, and functional monomers to improve the melt strength through the melt grafting. The melt flow index (MFI) of the b-PP was increased with increasing the initiator content. On the introduction of the alkylamine as the branching agents the MFI of the b-PP was increased, while that of the b-PP with the pentaerythritol triacrylate (PT) was decreased. It may be caused by the chain scission of the i-PP backbone due to the reduced thermal stability of the i-PP on the melt blending. The MFI of the b-PP without the antioxidant was increased due to the chain scission occurred during the melt processing, while on the introduction of the antioxidant, the MFI of the b-PP was decreased. The crystallization temperature of the b-PP was higher than that of PP, which was attributed to the branched chain structure. It was found that the PT was the most effective functional monomers for enhancing the melt properties of the b-PP.

Before studying graft polymerization of PP(polypropylene) nonwoven fabrics by electron beam preirradiation method, mechanical properties, thermal properties and degree of crystallinity of original and electron beam irradiated PP nonwoven fabrics were investigated. Morphological surface changes of electron beam irradiated PP nonwoven fabrics were not observed. And the melting temperature and crystallinity of electron beam irradiated PP nonwoven fabrics also did not change as compared with untreated PP nonwoven fabrics. But the breaking strength of electron beam irradiated PP nonwoven fabrics decreased with increasing electron beam absorbed dose due to breakdown of some parts of polymer main chain.

In this study, random polypropylene (rPP) was compounded with two of monoglycerides, namely, glyceryl monolaurate (GML) and glyceryl monostearate (GMS), as antifogging agents to improve its antifogging performance. rPP film samples were prepared by a film-casting method using a three-roll casting machine after melt blending through a twin screw extruder. With an increase in the monoglyceride content, the melt flow index for rPP films with GML and GMS increased, and their yield strength decreased. The incorporation of GMS in rPP was proven to be more effective in improving its physical properties than was rPP with GML. When GML and GMS were separately added to the rPP film at contents of more than 1 phr and more than 5 phr, respectively, the film exhibited antifogging performance.
