Such applications require sterilization to be carried out prior to use and a method that is becoming widely established is radiation due to its reliability and effectiveness. The aim of this paper is to investigate the potential effects of electron beam irradiation ranging between 25 and 200kGy for unstabilised PP. Sample of PP were subjected to a wide range of extensive characterization technique such as tensile strength, impact strength, modulated differential scanning colorimetry, melt flow index, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, rheology, x-ray diffraction, colorimetry, shore D hardness , oxidative inductive time, goniometry and accelerated aging. 2017-11-24T03:56:57Z 2017-11-24T03:56:57Z 2012 Article Journal of Engineering Research and Education, vol. 6, 2012, pages 1-23 1823-2981 http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/50510 http://jere.unimap.edu.my en Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP)
