Abstract

Abstract The crosslinking of LDPE resulting from reaction with dicumyl peroxide at 180°C is increased in the presence of maleic anhydride (MAH). The presence of electron‐donating nitrogen‐containing compounds (amides, lactams, disubstituted aromatic amines, and amine oxides), phosphorous‐containing ...
