The radical initiated graft copolymerization of acrylonitrile(AN) and 4-chlorostyrene(4-Clst) onto ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer(EPDM) rubber was investigated under various conditions. Graft copolymer(AU-EPDM-4-Clst) was isolated b: selective solvent extraction and identified by using IR spectroscopy. The percent grafting is determined as a function of solvent, reaction time, and monomer mole ratio. Percent grafting decreased in the order of tetrahydrofuran(THF)>THF/ethyl acetate(EA)(1 : 1)>cyclohexane/EA(1 : 1)>n-hexane/EA(1 : 1). Grafting increased continuously with increasing the reaction time up to 40 hr, beyond which the grafting levelled off. It was observed that percent grafting increased as increasing [4-Clst]/[AN] mole ratio, but decreased when [4-Clst]/[AN] mole ratio was higher than 1.60. The light resistance of graft copolymer(AN-EPDM-4-Clst) was better than that of ABS.
