Notes:
Ethyl methacrylate grafted nylon-6 fibers prepared by mutual irradiation technique was characterized to determine the modifications in its properties arising as a result of grafting. Scanning electron microscopy study provides some information about the presence of grafting. Density of fibers were found to increase constantly with percentage graft. Where as alkali solubility, moisture regain decreased with percentage graft thereby decreasing the dyeability of the fiber. However the ethyl methacrylate grafted nylon-6 fiber showed improvements in its thermal properties over the original nylon-6 fiber.
