Abstract
An attempt has been made to graft a hydrophylic monomer of N,N.dimethy l acrylamide (DMAA) onto natural rubber (NR) tube by simultaneous, per -oxidation and preirradiation grafting techniques. It was found that t he grafting by simultaneous grafting technique results a maximum 29 wt % degree of grafting and by peroxidation and preirradiation techniques , results the maximum 42 wt% and 13 wt% degree of grafting, respective ly. It was concluded that the peroxidation technique is the most appro priate to obtain a high degree of grafting in radiation copolymerizati on of DMAA onto NR.
