Radical induced grafting may be carried out in solution, in the melt phase,292 29 or as a solid state process.296 This section will focus on melt phase grafting to polyolefin substrates but many of the considerations are generic. The direct grafting of monomers onto polymers, in particular polyolefins, in the melt phase by reactive extrusion has been widely studied. Most recently, the subject has been reviewed by Moad1 9 and by Russell.292 More details on reactive extrusion as a technique can be found in volumes edited by Xanthos," A1 Malaika and Baker et a 21 7 The process most often involves combining a frcc-radical initiator (most commonly a peroxide) and a monomer or macromonomer with the polyolefin as they are conveyed through the extruder. Monomers commonly used in this context include MAII (Section 7.6.4.1), maleimidc derivatives and malcate esters (Section 7.6.4.2), (meth)acrylic acid and (meth)acrylate esters (Section 7.6.43), S, AMS and derivatives (Section 7.6.4.4), vinylsilancs (Section 7.6.4.5) and vinyl oxazolines (Section 7.6.4.6). 

Linear polymers, polystyrene and cellulose triacetate exhibit differences in hydrodynamic behavior in solution. Cellulose and its derivatives are known to have highly extended and stiff chain molecules below a Dp of about 300, but as the Dp Increases above 300 the chain tends to assume the character of a random coll (27,28). The assumption that hydrodynamic volume control fractionation in GPC may not be true for polystyrene and cellulose triacetate, though it has been found satisfactory for non-polar polymers in good solvents (29).
