This invention relates to compositions and methods for improving the adhesion of resin compositions to substrate materials, pre-treating substrate materials to improve the adhesion of resin compositions to the substrate materials, and/or controlling gel formation of resin compositions. More particularly, the invention relates to compositions and methods for improving the adhesion of ring opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) compositions to substrate materials using adhesion promoters containing isocyanate groups in a resin composition. The invention also relates to methods for improving the adhesion of resin compositions to substrate materials by pre-treating substrate materials with adhesion promoters containing isocyanate groups. The invention further relates to a method of providing a gel-modified ROMP composition, in which a hydroperoxide is added to a ROMP polymerizable resin composition in order to control gel formation of the polymerizing resin. An improved ROMP composition is further disclosed, comprising a cyclic olefin, a ROMP metathesis catalyst, an adhesion promoter, and an added hydroperoxide gel modifier. The polymer products produced via ROMP reactions of the invention may be utilized for a wide range of materials and composite applications. The invention has utility in the fields of catalysis, organic synthesis, and polymer and materials chemistry and manufacture.

Adhesion promoters and gel-modifiers for olefin metathesis compositions

A resin has a structure defined by Formula (I) wherein: (a) each Ris independently a methylene group (CH), or a methylene group substituted with one or more &#x2014;H, &#x2014;CH, or halogen functionalities; (b) each Ris independently a bond or a straight-chain or branched, linear or cyclic, saturated or unsaturated, substituted or unsubstituted, aliphatic or aromatic group having between 1 and 2 carbon atoms; (c) each X is independently a functionality possessing at least one non-aromatic alkene or alkyne moiety; (d) each Z is independently either H or X; (e) each Z is independently either H or X, and each p is independently an integer from 1-4; (f) each w is independently 0, or an integer greater than or equal to 1, and (i) when w is 0, the bracket region represents a bond and n is 0, or an integer greater than or equal to 1; and (ii) when n is 0, the bracket region represents a bond. The resin is especially well suited for use in a base station, circuit board, server, router, radome or satellite structure, as well as such processes as digital light printing (DLP), continuous liquid interface printing (CLIP), and Stereolithography (SL).

Oligomer resin compositions

This invention relates to compositions and methods for improving the adhesion of resin compositions to substrate materials. More particularly, the invention relates to compositions and methods for improving the adhesion of ROMP compositions to substrate materials using an adhesion promoter composition, where the adhesion promoter composition comprises a pre-reacted mixture comprising at least one compound containing at least two isocyanate groups and at least one compound comprising a heteroatom-containing functional group and a metathesis active olefin, where the adhesion promoter composition is storage stable and/or possesses in-resin storage stability when added to a resin composition, particularly a cyclic olefin resin composition, such as a ROMP composition. The polymer products produced via ROMP reactions of the invention may be utilized for a wide range of materials and composite applications. The invention has utility in the fields of polymer and materials chemistry and manufacture.
