  • Patent number: 6667379
    Abstract: The present invention provides an olefin/cycloolefin/alkylstyrene copolymer which is non-functionalized, functionalized, or grafted. By the functionalization of the benzylic protons of the alkylstyrene unit, the copolymer can be functionalized. The functionalized or grafted olefin/cycloolefin/alkylstyrene copolymer has good adhesion to a substrate and good compatibility with other polymers compared with the non-functionalized copolymer.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 28, 2001
    Date of Patent: December 23, 2003
    Assignee: Industrial Technology Research Institute

  • Patent number: 6437051
    Abstract: The present invention provides a graft copolymer of a syndiotactic styrene/para-alkylstyrene copolymer, having the formula of wherein R1 and R2 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl, and primary and secondary haloalkyl; X is a functional group selected from a group containing halogen, oxygen, sulfur, silicon, nitrogen, carbon, phosphorus, and mixtures thereof; Y is an atactic polymer moiety; a ranges from 10 to 30000; b ranges from 0 to 30000; c ranges from 0 to 30000; and d ranges from 1 to 30000. The compatibility of the graft copolymer of syndiotactic styrene/para-alkylstyrene copolymer of the present invention with other polymers is improved over a syndiotactic styrene polymer. Also, the graft copolymer of the present invention can serve as a compatibilizer for a polymer blend.

  • Publication number: 20020062926
    Abstract: A resin composition with a low dielectric constant comprises: (a) a functionalized cyclic olefin copolymer; (b) a mixture of epoxy resins; and (c) a curing agent. A laminate and a resin coated clad made of the resin composition exhibit reduced dielectric constants of 3.3 and 2.9 at 1 GHz, respectively.
