• the radical grafting of functional monomers on the polyolefins is carried out either in the molten state, or in solution using radical initiators such as peroxides, or in the solid state by irradiation. Under the action of radicals, side reactions occur at the same time as the grafting reaction. They lead to an increase in molecular weight in the case where the polymer to be grafted is polyethylene, or to its decrease in the case where it is polypropylene. If the quantity of radicals necessary for the grafting reaction is large, the evolution of the molecular weight of the polyolefin leads to a significant modification of its viscosity in the molten state. These grafts are generally carried out in an extruder.
• the viscosity of the grafted polyethylene is so high that it can no longer be extruded; the viscosity of the grafted polypropylene is so low that it too can no longer be extruded.
• Patent EP 802207 describes the grafting of high quantities of functional monomer onto mixtures of polyethylene and polypropylene.
• the increase in the molecular weight of the polyethylene is compensated by the decrease in the molecular weight of the polypropylene present during the radical grafting reaction.
