A METHOD FOR PREPARING HIGH MOLECULAR WEIGHT UNSATURATED COPOLYMERS OF ETHYLENE WITH A HIGHER ALPHAOLEFIN SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF PROPYLENE AND BUTENE-L, WHICH ARE SULFUR-VULCANIZABLE BY PROCESSES USED CONVENTIONALLY FOR THE VULCANIZATION OF UNSATURATED RUBBERS, FROM HIGH MOLECULAR WEIGHT AMORPHOUS AND SATURATED COPOLYMERS OF ETHYLENE WITH THE SELECTED HIGHER ALPHA-OLEFIN, WHICH METHOD COMPRISES CONTACTING THE SATURATED COPOLYMER WITH FROM ABOUT 2 TO ABOUT 6 PARTS BY WEIGHT OF CHLORINE PER 100 PARTS OF THE AMORPHOUS COPOLYMER UNDER CONDITIONS SUCH THAT THE CHLORINE IS DISTRIBUTED HOMOGENEOUSLY IN THE COPOLYMER WITHOUT CHEMICAL COMBINATION OF THE CHLORINE WITH THE COPOLYMER, HEATING THE RESULTING MASS TO A TEMPERATURE NOT HIGHER THAN 100*C. UNTIL FROM 1% TO 3% BY WEIGHT OF CHLORINE IS HOMOGENEOUSLY COMBINED WITH THE COPOLYMER, AND THE DEHYDROCHLORINATING THE CHLORINATED COPOLYMER AT A TEMPERATURE ABOVE 160*C. AND BETWEEN 160*C. AND ABOUT 250*C., UNTIL VIRTUALLY ALL OF THE 1% TO 3% BY WEIGHT OF CHLORINE COMBINED WITH THE COPOLYMER IN THE CHLORINATING STEP IS REMOVED.
