    摘要: The present disclosure relates to a thermoplastic vulcanizate including a polypropylene and a copolymer. The copolymer may have an ethylene content, a propylene content, and an a, α,ω-diene content. The thermoplastic vulcanizate has a shore hardness of about 20 Shore A or greater. Alternatively, a thermoplastic vulcanizate may include a polypropylene and an elastomeric polymer and have a shore hardness of about 50 MPa or greater, a tensile strength at yield of about 18 MPa or greater, and an oil swell of about 15% weight gain or less. Additionally, the present disclosure relates to processes for producing thermoplastic vulcanizates. A process may include introducing a catalyst and propylene to a first reactor to form a first polymer, and introducing the first polymer, ethylene, at least one α,ω-diene, and optionally additional propylene to a second reactor to form an impact copolymer. The process may further include crosslinking the impact copolymer.
