RADICALLY FUNCTIONALIZED OLEFIN-BASED POLYMER WITH REDUCED MOLECULAR WEIGHT CHANGE AND METHOD

摘要

The present disclosure provides a functionalized olefin-based polymer, a process for producing the same, and articles containing the functionalized olef?n-based polymer. The functionalized olefin-based polymer includes an olef?n-based polymer, and a functional agent grafted to the olefin-based polymer by way of a coagent. The coagent is either a cinnamoyl derivative and/or a cyano-acrylate compound. The presence of the coagent inhibits a change in the molecular weight during radical functionalization of the olefin-based polymer.
