After the copolymerization by VASP, CμC surfaces were covered by accumulated polymers: P(AA-co-BA) including block-type copolymer and homopolymers of 6.2-25.3 wt% versus CμC. Although structures of the products were unspecified, it was expected to be mixtures of block copolymers and homopolymers. Subsequently prepared P(AA-co-BA) on CμC/PP (5/95 wt/wt) composites expressed a superior mechanical toughness, which had increased threefold when compared to intact CμC/PP composite. This increase in toughness was mainly based on an increase in elongation rate, reflecting improvement of the adhesion strength at the interface between CμC surface and PP. The trace amounts: 0.31 wt% of accumulated P(AA-co-BA) on CμC surface must function as an effective adhesive/compatibilizer at the interface.}, title = {Adhesion Control of Interface between Cellulose and Polypropylene by Vapor-Phase Assisted Surface Copolymerization}, volume = {135}, year = {2017}, yomi = {ニシダ, ハルオ} }
