    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a polymeric composition comprising the cross-linked reaction product of an ionomer and a silane crosslinking agent. The ionomer may include an E/X/Y polymer where E is an ethylene monomer, X is α,β-ethylenically unsaturated carboxylic acid comonomer having 3 to 8 carbons, or its ester, and Y is alkyl acrylate or dicarboxylic acid comonomer. The ionomer comprises from 1 to 30 wt. % of X and from 0 to 40 wt. % of Y. At least a portion of the carboxyl groups of X and optionally Y are neutralized with a metal cation. The silane crosslinking agent has a formula Z((CH2)aSi(OR)b)c. Z is a mono-functional reactive group, R is an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms or a hydrogen atom, a is from 1 to 4, b is 3, and c is from 1 to 2.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the production of a polyethylene by polymerisation of a reaction mixture comprising ethylene in the presence a catalyst system and an antistatic agent according to formula I: (I) wherein R1, R2 and R3 stand for a moiety according to formula II or a hydrocarbon moiety having 1 to 20 carbon atoms (II) wherein each of R4, R5 and R6 may be the same or different, and wherein each of R4, R5 and R6 is a hydrocarbon moiety having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and wherein at least one of R1, R2 and R3 is a moiety according to formula II. Such process allows for the reduction of sheeting in the polymerisation reactor without compromising the polymerisation reaction kinetics.

    Abstract: Novel functionalized rubbers having low hysteresis and good compatibility with fillers, such as carbon black and silica, have been synthesized. These functionalized rubbers, including functionalized polybutadiene rubber and functionalized styrene-butadiene rubber, can be beneficially used in making a wide variety of rubber products that have enhanced physical properties. These improved properties are realized because the functional groups therein improve compatibility with reinforcing fillers that are typically included in such rubber compounds. These functionalized rubbers are comprised of polymer chains of the structural formula: wherein Polydiene represents a polymer chain which is comprised of at least one diene monomer and wherein R1 and R2 can be the same or different and represent alkyl groups containing form 1 to 8 carbon atoms. These rubbers can also be functionally terminated with a silicon containing terminator.
