摘要 |
The present invention relates to an improved modified polyamide having increased molecular weight and substantially the same or marginally increased viscosity versus shear weight as the unmodified polyamide. A method for modifying polyamides to provide these improved properties also is disclosed wherein a polyamide having an initial molecular weight is contacted with at least one organic peroxide, at least one coagent and/or one free-radical trap to form an improved polyamide having an increased molecular weight and substantially the same viscosity versus shear rate. The present disclosure also relates to polyamide compositions comprising organic peroxides and articles made from the modified polyamide. |
