A resin which has excellent adhesion to nonpolar substrates, is nontacky, and has satisfactory solubility in aromatic or nonaromatic solvents and satisfactory compatibility with other resins. The resin is a modified polyolefin resin having a weight-average molecular weight of 15,000 to 150,000 obtained by modifying a polyolefin resin by grafting thereto (A) an unsaturated polycarboxylic acid or a derivative thereof and (B) a (meth)acrylic ester represented by a specific general formula, the contents of (A) and (B) in the modified polyolefin resin being 0.1 to 20 wt. % and 0.1 to 30 wt. %, respectively.

Modified polyolefin resin, modified polyolefin resin composition, and uses thereof

A novel chlorine-free modified polyolefin resin composition with excellent adherence to nonpolar substrates, excellent solubility in solvents, excellent compatibility with other resins, and without tack after painting and drying is obtainable by graft modifying a mixed resin having 40 to 99 parts by weight of polyolefin resin (A) and 1 to 60 parts by weight of ethylenic compound-unsaturated carboxylic acid copolymer (B) that contains 0.1 to 50% by weight of unsaturated carboxylic acid derivative, with unsaturated carboxylic acid derivative and/or its anhydride (C), the modified polyolefin resin composition having weight average molecular weight of 20,000 to 150 000 and the grafting weight of (C) being 0.1 to 20% by weight.

Modified polyolefin resin composition and uses thereof

Disclosed is a polyamide-modified polyolefin composition obtainable by heating to react modified polyolefin with weight average molecular weight of not less than 5,000 to not more than 150,000, graft modified so as the content of unsaturated carboxylic acid anhydride to become 0.1 to 20 wt. % and polyamide with number average molecular weight of not less than 3,000 to not more than 30,000 at a particular weight ratio. The purpose is to provide a novel chlorine-free modified polyolefin with excellent adherence to polyolefin substrates, with no tack, and also with excellent cohesion.

Polyamide-modified polyolefinic composition and uses thereof

Disclosed is a novel chlorine-free modified polyolefin composition with excellent adherence to polyolefin substrates, with excellent solventresistance, oil resistance and weather resistance, with no tack, and also with excellentcohesion, obtainable by using 0.5 to 15% (by weight) of maleic anhydride and 0.1 to 7.5% (by weight) of styrenic monomer to polypropylene, eyhylene-propylene copolymer or ethylene-propylene-buten copolymer, and by graft polymerizing so as the weight ratio of maleic anhydride to styrenic monomer to become not less than 2 to not more than 5.

Modified polyolefin composition and uses thereof

The invention relates to a method for producing solvent-soluble chlorinated ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer by conducting homogeneous chlorination of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer in aqueous suspension by irradiation or by organic or inorganic radical generation, which method comprises conducting the chlorination upon a powder of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer containing 5 to 35 wt % of vinyl acetate and having a specific surface area of not less than 300 cm.sup.2 /g at a reaction temperature dependent upon the content of vinyl acetate as expressed in the relationship:
