Abstract

A process for enhancing the polymerization activity of mixtures of one or more cycloolefin monomers is provided by treatment with heat. This process can be easily incorporated into ring-opening, bulk polymerization methods and methods which form high molecular weight monomers. Enhancing the polymerization activity of crude mixtures of cycloolefin monomers by this process permits polymers having higher glass transition temperatures and higher heat distortion temperatures to be produced with greater economy.
