Abstract

Abstract Crystalline, isotactic homopolymers of cycloolefins or elastic copolymers made from cycloolefins and linear olefins are obtained, without ring opening of the cycloolefins, at industrially favorable polymerization temperatures by means of a catalyst which comprises a stereorigid, chiral metallocene compound of groups IVb to VIb of the Periodic Table of the Elements and an aluminoxane.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 78 words
A homopolymer or copolymer containing 80 to 100 mol-% repeating cyclic units derived from a cycloolefin monomer, the balance of up to 20 mol-% of the repeating units, in the case of a copolymer, being derived from at least one linear monomer selected from the group consisting a C 2 --to C 28 --1--olefin and a C 4 --to C 28 --diolefin, said copolymer having a polydispersity, M w /M n ranging in value from 2.9 to 6.0.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 78 words
A homopolymer or copolymer containing 80 to 100 mol-% repeating cyclic units derived from a cycloolefin monomer, the balance of up to 20 mol-% of the repeating units, in the case of a copolymer, being derived from at least one linear monomer selected from the group consisting a C 2 --to C 28 --1--olefin and a C 4 --to C 28 --diolefin, said copolymer having a polydispersity, M w /M n ranging in value from 2.9 to 6.0.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 34 words
A homopolymer or copolymer as claimed in claim 1, containing 90 to 100% repeating cyclic units derived from a monomer of the formula ##STR10## in which n is a number from 2 to 10.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 30 words
A copolymer according to claim 2 containing up to 10 mol-% repeating units derived from a C 2 to C 6 1--olefin or a C 4 to C 12 --diolefin.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 25 words

Claim 6
Dependent Claim 25 words
A crystalline isotactic polycyclopentene, comprising repeating cyclopentene units in which the monomer rings are fully retained, said polycyclopentene having a melting point above 250° C.
