Abstract
Abstract A silane-crosslinkable copolymer composition comprising: (A) 100 parts by weight of a copolymer prepared by radically polymerizing a polymerizable monomeric mixture consisting essentially of ethylene and at least one ethylenically unsaturated silane compound selected from the group consisting of vinyltrimethoxysilane, vinyltriethoxysilane and γ-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane under a pressure ranging from 1,000 to 4,000 kg/cm 2 , and containing said silane compound in an amount of from 0.5 to 2 wt %; (B) from 0.001 to 10 parts by weight of a silanol condensation catalyst; and (C) from 0.01 to 5 parts by weight of a silane compound having a hydrolyzable organic group.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
163 words
A crosslinked molded product having improved appearance produced by a process which comprises kneaded a mixture comprising (A) 100 parts by weight a copolymer prepared by radically polymerizing a polymerizable monomeric mixture consisting essentially of ethylene and at least one ethylenically unsaturated silane compound selected from the group consisting of vinyltrimethoxysilane, vinyltriethoxysilane and γ-methacryloxypropyltriethoxysilane in the presence of a radical polymerization initiator and chain transfer agent under pressure ranging from 1,000 to 4,000 kg/cm 2 , and containing said silane compound in an amount of from 0.1 to 5 wt. %; (B) from 0.001 to 10 parts by weight of a catalyst for accelerating condensation between silanol groups of the ethylenically unsaturated silane compound; and (C) from 0.01 to 5 parts by weight of at least one silane compound having a hydrolyzable organic group selected from the group consisting of n-butyltrimethoxysilane, n-propyltrimethoxysilane, di-n-butyldimethoxysilane, dimethyldimethoxysilane and diethyldimethoxysilane; extruding the material obtained from the kneading step; and exposing the extruded material to water or moisture.
