Abstract

âº Makrofol is a candidate for applications requiring its bending without breaking. âº The carbonyl groups (CO) are the most sensitive groups to proton irradiation. âº The irradiation of Makrofol causes crosslinking that increases the molecular mass. âº The standard chains and a great number of chain ends weaken under proton irradiation.
