Sumario: | In the present work, the effect of divinylbenzene (DVB) on the kinetics of post-radiation chemical graft polymerization styrene (St) on polyethylene (PE) film and its structural and morphological features were investigated. It has been found that the dependence of the degree of polystyrene (PS) grafting on the DVB concentration in the solution is extreme. An increase in the rate of graft polymerization at low concentrations of DVB in the solution is associated with a decrease in the mobility of the growing chains of PS. A decrease in the rate of graft polymerization at high concentrations of DVB is associated with a decrease in the rate of diffusion of St and iron(II) ions in the cross-linked network structure of macromolecules of graft PS. A comparative analysis of the IR transmission and multiple attenuated total internal reflection spectra of the films with graft PS shows that graft polymerization of St in the presence of DVB leads to the enrichment of the film surface layers in PS. These results have been confirmed by the data on the distribution of sulfur in these films after sulfonation. The micrographs of the surface of the grafted films show the formation of cross-linked local microphases of PS with fixed interfaces. |
