Copolymerization of dicyclopentadiene with norbornene derivatives and copolymers obtainable therewith

摘要

A process for the production of thermoset copolymers, having tailored product properties and more particularly a predetermined increase of the glass-­transition temperature and/or increase of cross-­linking, comprising contacting the comonomer mixture with a methathesis catalyst system, obtainable by combining at least a catalyst component and an activator component, characterized in that the comonomer one or more compounds are used, according to the formulae:;Comonomers to be used for said process and reaction mixtures or components thereof containing such comonomers; and thermoset copolymers obtained by said process.
