Polypropylene (PP) films were grafted with N ‐phenylmaleimide using γ‐radiation. The effect of both monomer concentration and dose rate on the degree of grafting was measured. Characterization of the grafted PP films included IR spectroscopy, X‐ray spectroscopy, electrical conductivity, mechanical properties and thermal stability has been studied. © of SCI.
