Abstract

Various diazo-compounds, 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperidin-4-yl diazoacetate (PMPDA), 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-4-yl diazoacetate (TMPDA), methyl diazoacetate (MDA), 1,2,2,6,6-pentamethylpiperidin-4-yl 2-diazo-3-methyloxycarbonylpropionate (PMPMDS), 1,2,2,6,6pentamethylpiperidin-4-yl 2-diazo-4-methyloxycarbonylbutanoate (PMPMDP), and one azide, methyl azidocarboxylate (MAC), were successfully prepared and grafted on polyethylene films by UV light (lambda > 210 nm) activation. The treated films were characterised by FT-IR spectroscopy and contact angle measurements. Ab-initio quantum mechanical calculations allowed simulating the IR absorption spectra of the polymer grafted species. These last and the related grafting yields are discussed with reference to the diazo-compound structure and concentration. Up to 8.6 mol% of bonded groups (grafted groups/ethylene monomeric unit) were found without affecting the polymer molecular weight distribution, as shown by GPC analysis. All modified films bearing HAS groups showed very high photo-stability. (C) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
