Abstract

Abstract Compositions based on silane-grafted olefin polymers which are crosslinkable after shaping and which contain from 0.5 to 10% by weight of crystalline zeolites in powder form and, preferably, also a crosslinking coagent consisting of an aryl-carboxilic or aryl-sulphonic acid and/or a crosslinking catalyst.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 74 words
Compositions based on polyolefins which have been modified by grafting with unsaturated hydrolisable silanes and comprising crystalline zeolite in powder form chosen among types 3A, 4A, 5A, X, Y, P or hydroxysodalite and which are present to the extent of 0.5 to 10 parts by weight per 100 parts of polyolefin, said compositions being suitable for shaping articles which are cross linkable, after shaping, by heating and/or exposure to water and/or exposure to microwaves.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 74 words
Compositions based on polyolefins which have been modified by grafting with unsaturated hydrolisable silanes and comprising crystalline zeolite in powder form chosen among types 3A, 4A, 5A, X, Y, P or hydroxysodalite and which are present to the extent of 0.5 to 10 parts by weight per 100 parts of polyolefin, said compositions being suitable for shaping articles which are cross linkable, after shaping, by heating and/or exposure to water and/or exposure to microwaves.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 27 words
Compositions claimed in claim 1. characterised by the fact that the zeolite is in an activated state obtained by heat treatment which causes total or partial dehydration.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 64 words
Compositions as claimed in claim 1 characterized further by the fact that they contain a coagent for the silane crosslinking, consisting of an arylcarboxylic or arylsulphonic acid having a melting point higher than that of the initial polyolefin, 1-25 parts by weight of acid being present for 100 parts of zeolite, said acid having possibly but not necessarily been previously combined with the zeolite.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 20 words
Compositions as claimed in claim 1 which also contain a silanol condensation catalyst such as an organic compound of tin.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 53 words
Compositions as claimed in claim 2., characterised by the fact that polyolefins are used which have been modified by grafting an unsaturated silane, which has previously been combined with a partially or totally dehydrated zeolite, said grafting having been carried out at 160° to 250°C in the presence of a peroxide radical initiator.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 43 words
Articles based on crosslinked polymers obtained from polymeric compositions as claimed in claim 1 by shaping and subsequent crosslinking by exposure to humidity and/or to heat and/or exposure to microwave radiation, possibly but not necessarily in the presence of conventional silane crosslinking Catalysts.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 27 words
Articles as claimed in claim 6 characterized by the fact that crosslinking is effected by exposure to microwaves having fre-9 12 quencies between 10 and 10 Hz.
