Investigation of the Effect of Electron Radiation on the Structure of Polypropylene Using Optical and Atomic Force Spectroscopy Methods

Article Preview

Abstract:

Using optical and atomic-force microscopy methods, it has been established that exposure to electron radiation causes a change in the supramolecular structure of polypropylene – in films obtained by recrystallization of irradiated polypropylene, spherulites have a less perfect shape than films obtained from unirradiated polypropylene. Also, the films obtained by recrystallization of irradiated polypropylene surface roughness is greater.
