Processible and vulcanizable polar polymers

摘要

A method of promoting peroxide initiated crosslinking of polar polymers whereby the solubility of peroxide vulcanizing agents in these materials is increased. Increased peroxide solubility and/or processibility is accomplished by blending certain ethylene copolymers with these highly polar polymers. The blending of ethylene copolymers with the polar polymers substantially reduces the viscosity of the latter polymers thereby enhancing their processibility.
