Answer to Question 1

The irradiation process bombards the plastic material with much energy. Some of the energy is absorbed in the reactions, such as crosslinking, which occur within the polymer. The remainder of the energy can, therefore, be absorbed by the

polymer. This absorption would cause an increase in the temperature of the polymer.

Answer to Question 2

Dangerous fumes, it allows for a higher degree of automation, increases repeatability.
