Effect of electron beam irradiation (EB) on gas barrier property of HDPE/EPDM nanocomposites

In this study, electron beam irradiated (EB) was applied as a crosslinker agent for both pristine high density polyethylene (HDPE) and HDPE/ ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM)nanocomposite systems. The doses rate for EB irradiated technique were varied between 50, 100,150 and 200 kGy. The nanoc...
