Abstract
Kinetics of reaction between ethylene-methylacrylate copolymer and pol y-dimethyl siloxane rubber during melt processing has been studied fro m the infrared spectrophotometric data. The kinetic pattern confirms f irst order kinetics and the activation energy of the reaction was foun d to be 17 kJ/mole. (C) 1997 John Wiley & Sons Inc.
