    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a process for polymerising olefins in multi stage polymerisation process configuration, the process comprising a) polymerising in a first polymerisation step first olefin monomer, optionally in the presence of at least one other alpha olefin comonomer, in the presence of a metallocene polymerisation catalyst so as to form a first polymer component (A); and b) transferring the first polymer component (A) into a separation unit to remove low molecule penetrants and to obtain separated solid polyolefin particles of the first polymer component (A*) and c) polymerising in in gas phase in a second polymerisation step second olefin monomer, optionally in the presence of at least one other alpha olefin comonomer in the presence of the separated solid polyolefin particles (A*) of step b), so as to form a second polymer component (B). The disclosure further relates to a method for improving performance of a metallocene polymerisation catalyst in a multi-stage olefin polymerisation, wherein a first polymer component (A) produced in a first polymerisation step is transferred into a separation unit to remove low molecule penetrants and to obtain separated solid polyolefin particles of the first polymer component (A*) prior to transferring the obtained separated solid polyolefin particles of the first polymer component (A*) to a further polymerisation step.

    Abstract: A production method for a cyclic olefin copolymer which is capable of efficiently producing a cyclic olefin copolymer by copolymerizing monomers including a norbornene monomer and ethylene while suppressing the formation of a polyethylene-like impurity. The monomers including a norbornene monomer and ethylene are polymerized in the presence of a metallocene catalyst containing a cyclopentadiene ligand which is substituted with an alkyl group optionally substituted with a halogen atom, or a trialkylsilyl group, and satisfies specific conditions for substituent(s).
