Abstract:

The conversion of phosphazene high polymers to useful materials depends on the development of methods to cross-link the macromolecular chains. A number of cross-linking routes have been used, including chemical, photochemical, and high energy radiation techniques. The relationship of the cross-linking processes to electrochemical-, electrooptical-, elastomer-, structural-, membrane-, surface-, and biomedical properties is discussed. Polymers, Phosphazenes, Cross-linking, Materials.
