Description
A study on RVNRL with low energy electron beams of 300 keV was carried out to reduce cost of irradiation. To overcome the very low penetration of low energy EB a special vessel with a stirrer was developed. Physical properties such as tensile strength, elongation at break and swelling ratio of the films from the irradiated latex were measured to find out the optimum conditions of RVNRL. The results show that low energy EB can be used for RVNRL effectively even without sensitizers. (Author)
