Abstract
Abstract A crosslinked product is derived from an olefinic block copolymer comprising 5 to 70 parts by weight of at least one block (A), which is selected from homopolymer blocks of propylene and random copolymer blocks of propylene and ethylene or a C4-12 alpha -olefin and has a propylene content of 60 to 100% by weight, and 30 to 95 parts by weight of at least one block (B), which is a random copolymer of ethylene and at least one C3-12 alpha -olefin and has an ethylene content of 10 to 85% by weight. This crosslinked product is characterized in that: (1) the content therein of hot xylene insoluble components is from 5 to 75% by weight; and (2) the fluidity thereof, i.e., the quantity thereof flowing per second (cc/sec.x10-3) out through the orifice of Koka flow tester, is 3 to 500 cc/sec.x10-3 when measured by this flow tester having a cylinder diameter of 10 mm, an orifice diameter of 1 mm, and an orifice height of 2 mm and operated with a load of 30 Kg and a temperature of the crosslinked product of 200 DEG C.
