A cross-linked copolymer containing repeating units derived from a mixture comprising the following monomers: ##STR1## and occasionally other repeating units derived from other metathesis polymerizable cyclic compounds such as dicyclopentadiene, a process for producing the copolymer, a process for producing a molded article from the copolymer and a polymerizable composition therefor.

Metathesis polymerized cross-linked copolymer

A process for producing a molded article by introducing a reactive liquid mixture which comprises a cycloalkene containing dicyclopentadiene, a norbornene-type monomer containing at least one N-substituted 5-membered cyclic imide group and a metathesis polymerization catalyst system and which has moderated metathesis polymerizability into a mold in which the liquid mixture is metathesis polymerized, and a multi-part polymerizable composition for producing the molded article.

Metathesis polymerization of cycloolefins

A method for improving the properties of a metathesis polymerized cycloolefin article by treating with molecular halogen in an organic solvent. Degree of treatment can be regulated according to the swelling power of the solvent for the polymer. Improved properties include improved flame retardance, oxidation resistance and surface properties.

Process for producing modified molded polymer articles

Metathesis polymerized copolymer

A cross-linked copolymer containing repeating units derived from dicyclopentadiene and metathesis polymerizable halogen-containing cycloalkenes, a process for producing the copolymer, a process for producing a molded article from the copolymer and a polymerizable composition therefor.

Metathesis polymerization cross-linked halogen-containing copolymer

A cross-linked copolymer comprising repeating units derived from a mixture comprising metathesis polymerizable cyclic compounds such as dicyclopentadiene and carboxylic acid esters of which the acid residue and alcohol residue have individually at least one norbornene-moiety, a process for producing the copolymer, a process for producing a molded article from the copolymer and a polymerizable composition therefor.

A process for producing a colored cross-linked molded article by metathesis polymerizing in a mold a mixture comprising metathesis polymerizable monomers such as dicyclopentadiene and a metathesis polymerizable multi-part composition therefor.

Process for producing a colored molded article of metathesis polymerized

A polymer prepared by metathesis polymerizing at least one compound represented by the formula ##STR1## wherein m is 0 or 1 and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 respectively represent hydrogen atom or an alkyl group containing up to three carbon atoms provided that both R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are not hydrogen atom at the same time, or a mixture of said compound with at least one other metathesis polymerizable comonomer, a useful molded article, processes for preparing the polymer and a polymerizable composition therefor.
