HERSTELLUNG VON POLYPROPYLEN MIT VERBESSERTEN EIGENSCHAFTEN

摘要

A process for producing polypropylene having increased melt strength, the process comprising irradiating polypropylene which has been polymerised using a Ziegler-Natta catalyst with an electron beam having an energy of at least 5 MeV and a radiation dose of at least 10 kGray and mechanically processing the irradiated polypropylene to form long chain branches on the polypropylene molecules, whereby the polypropylene has a melt flow index (MFI) of at least 25 dg/min.
