Styrene‐grafted nylon 6 fibers which had been prepared by the UV irradiation method were investigated by dynamic viscoelasticity and dilatometry. It was found that nylon 6 is relaxed and polystyrene is simultaneously plasticized by nylon 6 during grafting. These phenomena are interpreted as follows. The grafting process causes nylon 6 to have a lower glass transition temperature and increases grafting frequency of polystyrene to nylon 6 by increasing the chemical junctions between the two components, so that they necessarily become more compatible.
