The present invention relates to a process for preparing solutions of hydrogenated nitrile-diene copolymer, wherein the nitrile-diene copolymer dissolved in an ether-containing or ketone-containing solvent mixture is subjected to hydrogenation conditions. The invention further relates to solutions of hydrogenated nitrile-diene copolymer (HNBR solutions) comprising CPME as solvent, and to the use of HNBR solutions in CPME-containing solvent mixtures as binder in electrodes.

Process for preparing HNBR solutions with alternative solvents

The present invention relates to a process for preparing nitrile rubbers having reduced molecular weight by metathesis of a first nitrile rubber in the presence of specific ruthenium complex catalysts that have particular N-heterocyclic carbene ligands.

Process for producing nitrile rubbers using ruthenium complex catalysts

The present invention relates to the use of specific catalysts for the metathesis degradation of nitrile rubber (NBR). The invention further relates to a method for preparing nitrile rubber with reduced molecular weight using specific catalysts.

Use of catalysts for the metathesis of nitrile rubber

The present invention relates to the use of Ru and Os carbene complexes with a hydroxamic acid (ester) function for the metathesis degradation of nitrile rubber (NBR). The invention further relates to a method for producing hydrogenated nitrile rubbers, by subjecting a nitrile rubber to a metathesis degradation in the presence of the said catalyst, and the degraded nitrile rubber obtained subsequently undergoes a hydrogenation, preferably in situ.

Use of ruthenium and osmium catalysts for the metathesis of nitrile rubber

The present invention relates to hydrogenated nitrile-butadiene-PEG acrylate copolymers, to the preparation thereof, to vulcanizable mixtures comprising hydrogenated nitrile-butadiene-PEG acrylate copolymers and the preparation thereof, and vulcanizates based on hydrogenated nitrile-butadiene-PEG acrylate copolymer.

Hydrogenated nitrile-butadiene-PEG-acrylate co-polymers

Catalyst compositions based on Ruthenium- or Osmium-based complex catalysts and specific co-catalysts are provided for selectively hydrogenating nitrile rubbers in the presence of such catalyst compositions.

Catalyst compositions and their use for hydrogenation of nitrile rubber

This invention relates to novel catalyst compositions based on Ruthenium- or Osmium-based complex catalysts of the Grubbs-Hoveyda, Grela or Zhan type and specific co-catalysts comprising at least one vinyl group, pref. ethyl vinyl ether, and to a process for selectively hydrogenating nitrile rubbers in the presence of such catalyst compositions, preferably with a preceding metathesis step using the same complex catalyst as in the hydrogenation step.
