Optimizing the Process Efficiency of Reactive Extrusion in the Synthesis of Vinyltrimethoxysilane-Grafted Ethylene-Octene-Copolymer (EOC-g-VTMS) by Response Surface Methodology

Optimizing the Process Efficiency of Reactive Extrusion in the Synthesis of Vinyltrimethoxysilane-Grafted Ethylene-Octene-Copolymer (EOC-g-VTMS) by Response Surface Methodology

Thermoplastic polymers like ethylene-octene copolymer (EOC) may be grafted with silanes via reactive extrusion to enable subsequent crosslinking for advanced biomaterials manufacture. However, this reactive extrusion process is difficult to control and it is still challenging to reproducibly arrive...
