    摘要: The invention relates to a method of producing styrene monomers by depolymerization (breakdown) of a styrene-copolymer-containing polymer mass, a device for carrying out the method, the use of a styrene copolymer for producing styrene monomers by thermal depolymerization and the use of a styrene copolymer as an additive in the thermal depolymerization of polystyrene. The polymer mass contains I) 10 to 100 wt %, relative to the total weight of the polymer mass (A), of a styrene copolymer (I), comprising: Ia) 10 to 99 wt %, relative to the styrene copolymer (I), of repeating units (Ia) that originate from styrene; and Ib) 1 to 90 wt %, relative to the styrene copolymer (I), of repeating units (Ib) that originate from a monomer the homopolymers of which have a ceiling temperature of below 350° C.; and II) optionally 0 to 90 wt % polystyrene (II).

    摘要: The invention relates to a method for producing a hydrocarbon resin, in which method a monomer mixture which contains an aromatic component containing indene and/or C1-4 alkylindene and a cyclic diolefin component containing a cyclic diolefin compound is polymerized by heating to a polymerization temperature of at least 180° C. to obtain a product stream containing hydrocarbon resin, wherein oligomers which contain units originating from the cyclic diolefin compound and/or units originating from the aromatic component are separated from the product stream and returned to the monomer mixture, and wherein the hydrocarbon resin is heated in an annealing step to a temperature of 150° C. to 300° C. for a period of 15 minutes to 240 hours. The invention also relates to a hydrocarbon resin that is obtainable by the method, to a hydrogenated hydrocarbon resin, and to the use of the hydrocarbon resin and the hydrogenated hydrocarbon resin.
