AB  - Experimental and mathematical modeling analyses were used for controlling melt 
      free-radical grafting of vinylic monomers on polyolefins and, thereby, reducing 
      the disturbance of undesired cross-linking of polyolefins. Response surface, 
      desirability function, and artificial intelligence methodologies were blended to 
      modeling/optimization of grafting reaction in terms of vinylic monomer content, 
      peroxide initiator concentration, and melt-processing time. An in-house code was 
      developed based on artificial neural network that learns and mimics processing 
      torque and grafting of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) typical vinylic monomer on 
      high-density polyethylene (HDPE). Application of response surface and 
      desirability function enabled concurrent optimization of processing torque and 
      GMA grafting on HDPE, through which we quantified for the first time competition 
      between parallel reactions taking place during melt processing: (i) desirable 
      grafting of GMA on HDPE; (ii) undesirable cross-linking of HDPE. The proposed 
      robust mathematical modeling approach can precisely learn the behavior of 
      grafting reaction of vinylic monomers on polyolefins and be placed into practice 
      in finding exact operating condition needed for efficient grafting of reactive 
      monomers on polyolefins.
