Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) films were modified via the grafting of polyacrylamide

(PAAM) onto the surface by surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization and UV-initiated grafting. The surface composition and morphology of the modified PET films were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results show that the surface of the PET film was grafted by PAAM, with its own surface morphology different from that of PET. The properties of the modified PET films were studied by contact-angle, peeling force, penetrability, haze, and friction factor measurements. The results indicate that the peeling force and friction factor of the modified PET films were higher than those of the unmodified

PET film.
