CATALYST SYSTEM CONTAINING A METATHESIS CATALYST AND AT LEAST ONE PHENOLIC COMPOUND AND A PROCESS FOR METATHESIS OF NITRILE-BUTADIENE RUBBER (NBR) USING THE CATALYST SYSTEM

摘要

The present invention relates to a catalyst system containing a metathesis catalyst containing at least one N-heterocyclic carbene ligand and at least one phenolic compound and to a process for performing the metathesis on nitrile rubbers for reducing their molecular weight using a metathesis catalyst containing at least one N-heterocyclic carbene ligand (NHC ligand) and at least one phenolic compound.
