Abstract

Abstract According to the present invention, there is disclosed a process for producing a novel resin which comprises the step of copolymerizing a five-member cyclic compound (component A) having a conjugated double bond and represented by the general formula (A) given below: <IMAGE> GENERAL FORMULA (A) wherein R is an alkyl group having from 1 to 3 carbon atoms; m and n are zero or integers not less than 1 and are in the relation of m+n=6; and/or a Diels-Alder addition product thereof (A) with a co-dimer (component B) of said five-member cyclic compound and 1,3-butadiene by heating a mixture of 20 to 90 parts by weight of said component A and 80 to 10 parts by weight of said component B at a temperature of from 200 DEG C. to 350 DEG C. Also disclosed are a process for hydrogenating said novel resin to produce a novel hydrogenated resin and resin compositions containing said hydrogenated resin.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 16
Claim 1
Independent Claim 107 words
A process for producing a novel hydrogenated resin which comprises the steps of: (i) copolymerizing a five-member cyclic compound (component A) selected from the group consisting of cyclopentadiene, dicyclopentadiene, and mixtures thereof, with a co-dimer (component B) of cyclopentadiene and 1,3-butadiene selected from the group consisting of tetrahydroindene, vinylnorbornene, and mixtures thereof, by heating a mixture of 20 to 90 parts by weight of said component A and 80 to 10 parts by weight of said component B at a temperature of from 220° to 350° C. to obtain a resin; and (ii) hydrogenating said resin to hydrogenate substantially all the carbon-carbon double bonds in the resin.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 107 words
A process for producing a novel hydrogenated resin which comprises the steps of: (i) copolymerizing a five-member cyclic compound (component A) selected from the group consisting of cyclopentadiene, dicyclopentadiene, and mixtures thereof, with a co-dimer (component B) of cyclopentadiene and 1,3-butadiene selected from the group consisting of tetrahydroindene, vinylnorbornene, and mixtures thereof, by heating a mixture of 20 to 90 parts by weight of said component A and 80 to 10 parts by weight of said component B at a temperature of from 220° to 350° C. to obtain a resin; and (ii) hydrogenating said resin to hydrogenate substantially all the carbon-carbon double bonds in the resin.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 31 words
The process according to claim 1 wherein component A comprises at least 80% by weight of said five-member cyclic compound selected from the group consisting of cyclopentadiene, dicyclopentadiene, and mixtures thereof.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 57 words
The process according to claim 1, wherein said mixture is a residual fraction obtained from a reaction mixture of Diels-Alder reaction of 1,3-butadiene with cyclopentadiene by distilling off the major part of vinylnorbornene as the main reaction product of said Diels-Alder reaction, said residual fraction containing 10 to 70% of dicyclopentadiene and 30 to 80% of tetrahydroindene.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 19 words

Claim 8
Dependent Claim 16 words
The process of claim 6 wherein hydrogenation (ii) is effected at 150° C. to 260° C.
