Grafting of chlorinated rubber with ethylacrylate and butyl methacrylate in xylene solution has been studied using benzoyl peroxide as the initiator. It is observed that the grafting reaction follows conventional kinetic behavior under the present experimental conditions. The energies of activation obtained for both monomers were 10.8 and 10.95 K.cals, respectively. The grafting efficiency and percent grafting were calculated. Additional proof for grafting onto chlorinated rubber was also obtained by characterization of the graft copolymer by gel permeation chromatography.
