Production of polyolefm graft-copolymers is widely used in altering the physical andchemical properties of polymers. This grafting procedure helps in producing tailor-made polymers with improved performance according to the customer's need. There are different graft-copolymers processing methods such as solution grafting, which takes place in the presence of organic solvents, grafting at high temperature conditions, and radiation grafting, which makes use of the radioactive sources. However, these graft-polymer processing methods have many drawbacks, which include the difficulty in removing the organic solvent completely after processing, which might cause negative environmental and health impact, decreased efficiency of the grafting co-polymerization due to the evaporation of monomers in the polymer at high temperatures and the need for expensive tools in the radiation grafting method.
