Chemical modification of polymers by reactive modifiers is no
longer an academic curiosity but a commercial reality that has
delivered a diverse range of speciality materials for niche
markets: reactively grafted styrenic alloys, maleated polyolefins,
super-tough nylons, silane modified and moisture-cured polyolefins,
and thermoplastic elastomers, are but few exam ples of commercial
successes. Although the approach of reactive modification of
polymers has been largely achieved either in solution or in the
solid state (through in situ reactions in polymer melts), it is the
latter route that has attracted most attention in the last two
decades owing to its flexibility and cost-effective ness. This
route, referred to as reactive processing, focuses on the use of
suitable reactive modifier(s) and the adoption of conventional
polymer processing machinery, an extruder or a mixer, as a chemical
reactor, to perform in situ targeted reactions for chemical
modification of preformed polymers. This relatively simple, though
scientifically highly challenging, approach to reactive
modification offers unique opportunities in exploiting various
reactive modifiers for the purpose of altering and transforming in
a controlled manner the properties of preformed commercial polymers
into new/speciality materials with tailor-made properties and
custom-designed performance for target applications. Such an
economically attractive route constitutes a radical diversion away
from the traditional practices of manufacturing new polymers from
monomers which involves massive in vestments in sophisticated
technologies and chemical plants."
