Acrylic acid was grafted onto the surface of cotton fabric after being short time treated by corona-discharge inair in the presence of initiator.The means of gas-phaseSO2 derivatization was used along with ESCA to deter-mine corona-discharge-induced-hydroperoxidegroups on the surface.The content of hydroperoxideshows a maxmium value at 15 sec.of corona-dischargetime.Effect of corona treatment time and various con-centration initlator on graft yield was studied.The addit-ion of initiator increases the graft yield.Acceleratedgraft with an increase in the concentration of Mohr’s saltshows that peroxide groups on the corona treated cottonfabric initiate graft copolymerization.
