In this study, we have studied the effects of polyfunctional monomers (PFMs) on physical properties of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymer crosslinked with electron beam (EB) or peroxides. The PFMs used were triallylcyanurate, triallylisocyanurate, trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate, zinc diacrylate, and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate. Using PFMs has led to (1) optimum cure time t (90) decrease from 19'25aEuro(3) to 17'30aEuro(3)aEuro"18'45aEuro(3), (2) scorch time increase from 2' to maximum 3'45aEuro(3), (3) increasing the crosslink density of peroxide or EB-cured systems by increasing the efficiency of productive radical reactions. The most efficient PFM for EVA copolymer blends has been triallylisocyanurate. Tensile strength and tear strength of samples crosslinked with EB for all irradiation doses are significantly better than those obtained for samples crosslinked with peroxides (differences up to 190%). The results show that EB irradiation gave the best results.
