Abstract
The existence of carbon-carbon double bonds in the surface shealth of fillers modified by a cold plasma in organic vapors and their chemical reactivity have been investigated using X-ray fluorescence and XPS sp ectroscopies. Grafting polymerization of vinyl monomers onto the plasm a-modified fillers has been achieved. Application of plasma-modified c alcium carbonate to sheet molding compounds resulted in a great improv ement of the mechanical properties.
