Studies on the effects of γ-radiation on the mechanical properties of Nylon 6–12 fibers

  • Published:
Polymer Bulletin Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Commercial nylon 6–12 fibers were subjected to various doses of γ-radiation. The mechanical and some thermal properties, as compared to those of non-irradiated fibers, show changes which are discussed in terms of the radiation-matter interactions.
