    摘要: A process for the synthesis of an ethylene/butadiene copolymer is provided. The process is continuous and comprises the following steps: a. feeding at least one stirred polymerization reactor with a mixture of ethylene, butadiene, hydrocarbon-based solvent and catalytic system allowing the formation of cyclic trans-1,2-cyclohexane units in the polymer chain with a mole ratio of ethylene to the sum of the ethylene and butadiene monomers ranging from 0.5 to 0.99; the concentration of ethylene and butadiene monomers in the polymerization reaction medium being less than 15% by weight; the operating pressure of the reactor is greater than or equal to the saturated vapour pressure of the polymerization reaction medium; and the polymerization temperature is greater than 90° C.; b. recovering the ethylene/butadiene copolymer, this copolymer comprising, statistically distributed, ethylene units, butadiene units and trans-1,2-cyclohexane units, the molar fraction of ethylene units in the copolymer being greater than or equal to 50%.

    摘要: The invention relates to a diorganomagnesium compound of formula RB—Mg—RA, RB being different from RA, RB comprising a benzene nucleus substituted with a magnesium atom, one of the carbon atoms of the benzene nucleus ortho to the magnesium being substituted with a methyl, an ethyl, an isopropyl or forming a ring with the carbon atom which is its closest neighbour and which is meta to the magnesium, the other carbon atom of the benzene nucleus ortho to the magnesium being substituted with a methyl, an ethyl or an isopropyl, RA being an alkyl, a cycloalkyl or a benzyl, which may be substituted or unsubstituted, which diorganomagnesium compound is other than n-butylmesitylmagnesium. When used as co-catalyst of a metallocene, it makes it possible to increase the functional group content in the synthesis of a functional polymer.
