Such copolymers can be readily derivatized by hydrogention and/or epoxidation to provide polymeric materials suitable for use as engineering thermoplastics.Also disclosed are processes for preparing and optionally further derivatizing ethylene/dicyclopentadiene copolymers having the characteristics hereinbefore described. Such processes comprise: a) contacting ethylene with a polymerization mixture comprising greater than about 4.0 molar dicyclopentadiene, in the presence of a selected activated cyclopentadienyl-fluorenyl metallocene catalyst bearing a substituent, preferably a methyl substituent, at the 3-position of the cyclopentadienyl ring, under specific polymerization conditions including relatively high ethylene pressures to thereby form the desired ethylene-dicyclopentadiene copolymers within the polymerization mixture. Such copolymers are then recovered and/or further hydrogenated or functionalized.

Provided are selected types of terpolymer components comprising terpolymers having monomer units derived from ethylene (E), dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) and norbornene-based (NB) co-monomers. Such terpolymer components have certain specified amounts of each co-monomer as well as certain specified molecular weight and glass transition temperature characteristics. Terpolymer components which are derivatized by hydrogenation and/or by epoxidation and/or hydroxylation are also disclosed, as well as thermoplastic polyolefin compositions which contain the terpolymer components and which have especially desirable structural and thermal properties.Also provided are processes for preparing and derivatizing the terpolymer components herein. Such preparation processes comprise: a) contacting ethylene with a polymerization mixture comprising selected amounts of both DCPD and NB co-monomers, in the presence of a selected activated cyclopentadienyl-fluorenyl metallocene catalyst under specific polymerization conditions to thereby form the desired ethylene-dicyclopentadiene-norbornene terpolymer components within the polymerization mixture. These terpolymer components can then be subsequently derivatized by hydrogenation or functionalization of the residual double bonds therein.
