This invention relates to a method of evaluating the identity of polymers and a system using the same, and more particularly to a novel method of evaluating the identity of polymers, wherein the identity of multiple polymers, rather than just one polymer, can be determined using only information about structures of the polymers, without the need to determine the characteristics of synthesized polymers through real-world experimentation. In order to evaluate the identity of polymers, the identity index PohoFactor(X) for each of target polymers is developed and used, and the identity of polymers can be accurately determined on a quantitative basis by evaluating correlations between the identity indices for all polymers, the identity of which is to be determined.

This invention relates to a method of evaluating monomers having an effect on copolymer characteristics and a system using the same, and particularly to a novel method of evaluating the magnitude of the effect of monomers on copolymer characteristics, which cannot be evaluated using existing methods. The method of evaluating monomers having an effect on copolymer characteristics and the system using the same are innovative because the extent of changes in copolymer characteristics can be predicted at the monomer level by quantitatively evaluating the effect of the monomers on the copolymer characteristics, taking into consideration the kind or linkage type of monomers.

The present invention relates to a norbornene polymer that comprises a norbornene monomer having a photoreactive functional group, and a method of manufacturing the same. The norbornene polymer comprises at least 50 mol % of exo isomers among the norbornene monomers having the photoreactive functional group. Since the norbornene polymer according to the present invention comprises at least 50 mol % of exo isomers among the norbornene monomers having the photoreactive functional group, a molecular weight is significantly increased while the yield is not reduced during the manufacturing of the polymer. In views of the three dimensional structure, stability is ensured because the polymer has a planar structure in which the photoreactive groups between the molecules are close to each other. Therefore, the distance between the photoreactive groups is reduced, thus increasing the photoreaction rate.

Disclosed is a method for producing a norbornene monomer composition, a norbornene polymer produced using the norbornene monomer composition, an optical film including the norbornene polymer, and a method for producing the norbornene polymer. The method includes reacting a reaction solution that contains cyclopentadiene, dicyclopentadiene, or a mixture of cyclopentadiene and dicyclopentadiene, an acetate compound, and a solvent so that a content of an exo isomer is 50 mol % or more. Variables such as a reaction temperature, a reaction time, a molar ratio between reactants, and addition of a solvent are controlled so that the exo isomer is contained in content of 50 mol % or more. Accordingly, it is possible to industrially produce an acetate norbornene addition polymer by using the acetate norbornene monomer composition containing the exo isomer in content of 50 mol % or more.
