Ethylen Copolymers

摘要

Polymers are disclosed consisting essentially of units derived from the monomers ethylene and a compound of the formula CH2=CH(CH2)mCO2R<1>, wherein R<1> is hydrogen, hydrocarbyl or substituted hydrocarbyl, and m is 0 or an integer from 1 to 16, and which contains about 0.01 to about 40 mole percent of repeat units derived from said compound, and provided that said repeat units derived from said compound are in branches of the formula -CH(CH2)nCO2R<1>, in about 30 to about 70 mole percent of said branches n is 5 or more, in about 0 to about 20 mole percent n is 4, in about 3 to 60 mole percent n is 1, 2 and 3, and in about 1 to about 60 mole percent n is 0.The polymers made are useful as elastomers, molding resins, in adhesives, etc.
