Abstract:Ethylene–norbornene copolymers are a significant kind of cyclic olefin copolymer (COC) produced by vinyl‐type coordination copolymerization of ethylene and norbornene catalyzed by transition metal catalysts. These totally amorphous copolymers are strong, stiff, highly transparent, and colorless. They have a very high moisture barrier and interesting electrical properties. The copolymers became commercially available in 2001, and products can be obtained from manufacturers such as Polyplastics. This article des… Show more
