Thermoplastic olefin, thermoplastic polyolefin (TPO), or olefinic thermoplastic elastomers refer to polymer/filler blends usually consisting of some fraction of a thermoplastic, an elastomer or rubber, and usually a filler. [1]
The Shell higher olefin process (SHOP) is a chemical process for the production of linear alpha olefins via ethylene oligomerization and olefin metathesis invented and exploited by Shell plc. [1] The olefin products are converted to fatty aldehydes and then to fatty alcohols , which are precursors to plasticizers and detergents .
Randomly functionalized polyolefins have differing types, location, and amount of functionality on the polyolefin backbone. Randomly functionalized polyolefins can be synthesized through many familiar combination of polymerization techniques including: post-functionalization, ROMP/hydrogenation, ADMET/hydrogenation, radical polymerization, and catalytic copolymerization.
An alpha-olefin (or α-olefin) is an alkene where the carbon-carbon double bond starts at the α-carbon atom, i.e. the double bond is between the #1 and #2 carbons in the molecule. Alpha-olefins such as 1-hexene may be used as co-monomers to give an alkyl branched polymer (see chemical structure below), although 1-decene is most commonly used ...
Thermoplastic olefins (TPO) are increasingly used as a roofing material. [8] TPEs are also widely used for catheters where nylon block copolymers offer a range of softness ideal for patients. Thermoplastic silicone and olefin blends are used for extrusion of glass run and dynamic weatherstripping car profiles. Styrene block copolymers are used ...
The double bond of an alpha olefin is between the #1 and #2 (IUPAC) or α and β (common) carbon atoms. In organic chemistry , terminal alkenes ( alpha-olefins , α-olefins , or 1-alkenes ) are a family of organic compounds which are alkenes (also known as olefins) with a chemical formula C x H 2 x , distinguished by having a double bond at the ...

Cyclic olefin polymer (COP) is a type of amorphous polymer used in a wide variety of applications including pharmaceutical packaging and medical devices, optics and displays, and electronics. Chemical structure
