Polymer production

摘要

A method for producing a polymeric material, said method comprising subjecting a starting material which includes two multiple bonds which are activated so that they will take part in a polymerisation reaction and wherein the multiple bonds are sufficiently close together to ensure that cyclopolymerisation will preferentially occur; to suitable conditions under which said polymerisation reaction will occur, provided that the starting material is other than triallyamine hydrochloride. The method can be used to produce polymers for various processes including adhesives, network polymers, liquid crystal polymers etc.
