Preparation of amine-modified ethylene/carboxylic acid copolymers, such copolymers, and use thereof as adhesion promoters and cable sheathing

摘要

A high molecular weight ethylene copolymer is prepared by high-pressure copolymerization of ethylene with an alpha , beta -ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid, carboxylic anhydride or a derivative thereof in the presence of a tertiary organic monoamine, preferably from 10 to 100 mol % thereof, based on the unsaturated carboxylic acid used, and can be used for preparing adhesion promoters and cable sheathing.
