Abstract

Abstract A process for the preparation of cyclopentadiene copolymers, wherein cyclopentadiene, dicyclopentadiene, tricyclopentadiene, their C 1 -C 3 -alkyl derivatives or co-dimers of cyclopentadiene with a diene of 4 or 5 carbon atoms are reacted with acetylenically unsaturated compounds, with or without other copolymerizable olefinically unsaturated monomers, at from 200° to 320° C. The cyclopentadiene polymers prepared according to the invention may be used, for example, as resin additives for surface coatings, tackifiers in adhesives or resins for printing inks.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 127 words
A process for the preparation of a cyclopentadiene copolymer which comprises: polymerizing (a) from 10 to 99% by weight of cyclopentadiene, dicyclopentadiene, tricyclopentadiene, their C 1 -C 3 -alkyl derivatives or co-dimers of cyclopentadiene with a diene of 4 or 5 carbon atoms, (b) from 1 to 50% by weight of at least one acetylenically unsaturated compound which in addition to one or more alkynyl groups contains one or more hydroxyl, amino, carboxyl, aldehyde, alkyl, aryl or aralkyl groups or halogen atoms and (c) from 0 to 40% by weight of other copolymerizable olefinically unsaturated monomers, at a temperature of from 200° to 320° C., either thermally or with addition of a source of free radicals, the sum of the percentages (a), (b) and (c) being 100.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 127 words
A process for the preparation of a cyclopentadiene copolymer which comprises: polymerizing (a) from 10 to 99% by weight of cyclopentadiene, dicyclopentadiene, tricyclopentadiene, their C 1 -C 3 -alkyl derivatives or co-dimers of cyclopentadiene with a diene of 4 or 5 carbon atoms, (b) from 1 to 50% by weight of at least one acetylenically unsaturated compound which in addition to one or more alkynyl groups contains one or more hydroxyl, amino, carboxyl, aldehyde, alkyl, aryl or aralkyl groups or halogen atoms and (c) from 0 to 40% by weight of other copolymerizable olefinically unsaturated monomers, at a temperature of from 200° to 320° C., either thermally or with addition of a source of free radicals, the sum of the percentages (a), (b) and (c) being 100.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 39 words
The process of claim 1, wherein components (a), (b) and (c) are first subjected to a Diels-Alder reaction and are then polymerized at from 200° to 320° C., either thermally or with addition of a source of free radicals.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 30 words
The process of claim 1, wherein component (b) consists of one or more of the compounds propargyl alcohol, but-2-yne-1,4-diol, 1-ethynylcyclohexanol, acetylenedicarboxylic acid, 1-ethynylcyclohexylamine, 4-diethylaminobut-2-yn-1-ol, 5-diethylaminopent-3-yn-2-ol, 2-methylbut-3-yn-2-ol, 3-chloroprop-1-yne or propargyl chloride.
