Abstract

This invention relates to a process for forming an azide-grafted polymer. The process comprises mixing a free-radical-reactive polymer with a free-radical initiator and an azide monomer that contains at least one unsaturated C═C bond capable of reacting with a radical, under solid-state grafting conditions, to form an azide-grafted polymer. The formed azide-grafted polymer can be used to prepare a long-chain branched or cross-linked polymer.
