In this study, Electron bombardment and Ion implantation with various radiation doses and different period of time have been carried out. These processing of polypropylene (PP) fabrics are found to promote significant changes in physical and chemical properties.
The obtained data show that, electron beam and Ion implantation processing of PP fabrics allow an adjustable modification of their surface properties. The functional groups on the surface of samples were examined using FTIR spectrometer. Moreover, dyeing properties for treated fabrics has been tested. Relative increase in color strength has been achieved. Morphology of samples was examined by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The absorption times and contact angle were utilized to analyze the result of the treated samples.
These processes are promising for the compatibilization of PP fiber and matrix with various compounds in blends and production of multilayered composites for versatile applications such as laminates and supported compound.
