Abstract EN
Graft copolymerization of acrylic acid (AA) onto Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) fabrics with the aid of benzoyl peroxide was carried out.
The effect of polymerization parameters on the graft yield was studied.
Percent grafting was enhanced significantly by increasing benzoyl peroxide (BP) concentrations up to 3.84 g/lit and then decreased upon further increase in initiator concentration.
Preswelling of PET leads to changes in its sorption-diffusion properties and favors an increase in the degree of grafting.
The antibiotics treated grafted fabrics showed antibacterial properties towards gram-positive and gram-negative microorganisms.
FTIR and SEM were used to characterize AA-grafted polyester fabrics.
