Efficient sensitizer-supported electron beam irradiation induced crosslinking of polyvinylidene fluoride for shape memory applications

Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) preferentially crosslinks upon exposure to ionizing electron beam irradiation, leading to substantial changes in its physicomechanical and thermophysical properties. However, low dose electron beam irradiation produces inefficient crosslinking in pure PVDF while high d...
