Investigation of Structure and Physicochemical Properties of PVDF Membrane Irradiated by Electron Beam

Polymers with good bulk properties are required for industrial applications, but often it is desirable to confer reactivity in order to match specific applications. Poly(vinylidene fluoride)(PVDF) is a fluorinated polymer which possesses good physical and chemical properties. It is widely studied in thefiltration membrane field either in the form of porous membranes or modified membranes. It can be processed in the form of multifilaments yarns or monofilaments. In addition itis biocompatible and therefore suitable for biomedical applications. Due to its chemical resistance, functionalization of PVDF cannot be achieved directly
