Binary graft copolymerization of pH-sensitive monomers (N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate, (DMAEMA) and acrylic acid (AAc) onto polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes with pore sizes of 0.22 and 0.45μm was conducted by one and two-steps grafting using a ⁶⁰Co gamma radiation source (Gammabeam 651 PT). The DMAEMA and AAc monomers were grafted by an oxidative pre-irradiation method in one-step grafting to obtain PDVF-g-(DMAEMA-co-AAc), and both direct irradiation and an oxidative pre-irradiation method were used to obtain the graft copolymer (PVDF-g-DMAEMA)-g-AAc in two-steps grafting. The optimal conditions, such as reaction time, temperature, solvent, monomer concentration and dose, were studied, the aim of this work was to investigate how these factors affecting the graft percent of DMAEMA and AAc prepared in one and two-steps grafting and their structural differences and also characterize the grafting membrane through analytical techniques.
