Characterized as a closed ring of carbon atoms with one or more double bonds, cycloolefins can be polymerized into a variety of linear polymers with applications in microelectronics, medicine, textiles, and more. Compiling the wealth of literature in this area, Polymers from Cycloolefins offers an up-to-date, comprehensive, and well-organized analysis of the synthesis, properties, and commercial applications cycloolefin-derived polymers. The book examines the types of monomers, catalysts, initiators, and solvents used for various cycloolefin polymerization reactions. It concludes with a review of cutting-edge commercial products and of future prospects for the design of new polymers.
