Abstract: A polishing pad for polishing a surface of a work,
(A) said polishing pad being made of a resin formed of a ring-opened polymer from a cycloolefin by metathesis polymerization, and
(B) said resin having a heat deformation temperature of 90 to 135° C., a compression elastic modulus of 980 to 2,940 MPa and a water absorption of 0.01 to 0.25% by weight.
The polishing pad of the present invention has a proper hardness, shows a low water absorption, causes no damage on a work surface and has durability.
Abstract: A plastic, lightweight formwork for concrete, which is an integrally molded article of a crosslinked polymer obtained by mixing a monomer solution A of a metathesis polymerizable cycloolefin containing a catalyst component of a metathesis polymerization catalyst system and a monomer solution B of a metathesis polymerizable cycloolefin containing an activator component of a metathesis polymerization catalyst system, injecting the mixture into a mold and subjecting the mixture to polymerization and a crosslinking reaction in the mold. (1) The formwork has a rectangular plate having a front surface and having a longitudinal length of 1,000-4,000 mm, a lateral length which is 1/2-1/10 of the longitudinal length and a thickness of 3-10 mm, and a reverse surface of the plate has a frame surrounding the plate and 3 to 6 crosspiece ribs are longitudinally formed on the reverse surface, the frame surrounding the plate having a thickness of 5 to 20 mm and a height of 40 to 100 mm.
