Abstract: Vinyl and acryl monomers were grafted on the oxidized polymer powder by means of a new initiation redox system. The grafting was carried out in an emulsion system in the presence of hydroperoxidated polymer, Cu(II) salt, and ammonia as complex-forming components and organic or inorgan­ic reducing agent. This initiation system enables to prepare copolymers of vinyl chloride grafted on polyolefins with high effectiveness.
