Abstract
A process for coating a polypropylene or polyethylene surface with a maleic acid-grafted polypropylene or polyethylene copolymer. In this process, a dope containing the graft copolymer is applied to the polypropylene or polyethylene surface, e.g. by dip coating, at a temperature high enough to keep the copolymer solvated in the dope solvent. The surface is then dried to leave a porous graft polymer coating bonded to the polypropylene or polyethylene. The coated product has superior adhesion characteristics compared to uncoated polypropylene or polyethylene.
