Abstract:
A cycloolefin in copolymeric (COC) optical communication device. The COC optical communication device includes a core section of functional metallocene cycloolefin copolymer (f-mCOC) having a refractive index n1 for light transmission, and a cladding layer of metallocene cycloolefin copolymer (mCOC), having a refractive index n2 smaller than n1, surrounding the core section and forming a waveguide structure together with the core section. Due to the fact that the various components of the optical communication device are comprised of essentially the same materials, signal transmission loss between heterogeneous interfaces is prevented, and provides excellent optical properties and superior processability.
Abstract:
An acrylonitrile block copolymer and method for producing the same. A macroinitiator is produced by halogenating the terminal group of the polyester. The macroinitiator then contacts with acrylonitrile (AN) monomer or its derivative in the presence of the metal catalyst and solvent mixture to produce a block copolymer composed of a polyacrylonitrile, and a polyester.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a molecular blended polymer that includes two or more types of polymers blended at the molecular level. At least one monomer is polymerized in the presence of two or more kinds of catalysts supported on a mesoporous molecular sieve having a pore size of 20 null to 500 null. The polymerization occurs in the pore of the mesoporous molecular sieve and is controlled at the molecular level. Thus, the polymer material is controlled extremely well and the function and physical properties of the polymer material are greatly enhanced.
Abstract:
A resin composition with a low dielectric constant comprises: (a) a functionalized cyclic olefin copolymer; (b) a mixture of epoxy resins; and (c) a curing agent. A laminate and a resin coated clad made of the resin composition exhibit reduced dielectric constants of 3.3 and 2.9 at 1 GHz, respectively.
