- Abstract
The article discusses the successful application of the concept of nanoreactors to effectively control the selectivity of the free radical grafting of maleic anhydride (MAH) onto polypropylene (PP) in the melt. The controlled release of the primary free radicals significantly increased the grafting degree of MAH onto PP and greatly decreased the level of the chain scission of the latter. Electron spin resonance and Monte Carlo simulations were conducted on model systems.
