METHOD FOR PRODUCING NORBORNANE SKELETON-CONTAINING POLYMER, AND NORBORNANE SKELETON-CONTAINING POLYMER

To provide: a method for producing a norbornane skeleton-containing polymer which has excellent transparency and adhesiveness to a polyimide resin and contains, in the same manner as the conventionally known copolymer of norbornane and a linear olefin, a norbornane skeleton and an alkylene chain derived from the linear olefin in the molecular chain; and a norbornane skeleton-containing polymer which can be produced by the production method.SOLUTION: A norbornane skeleton-containing polymer is produced by polymerizing one or two or more 2-alkyl norbornenes using, as a metal-containing catalyst, a metal compound comprising an atom of a Periodic Table Group 10 transition metal element.SELECTED DRAWING: None 【課題】透明性と、ポリイミド樹脂との接着性とに優れ、従来知られるノルボルネンと鎖状オレフィンとの共重合体と同様にノルボルナン骨格と、鎖状オレフィン由来のアルキレン鎖とを分子鎖中に含むノルボルナン骨格含有重合体を製造し得るノルボルナン骨格含有重合体の製造方法と、当該製造方法により製造され得るノルボルナン骨格含有重合体とを提供すること。【解決手段】１種、又は２種以上の２－アルキルノルボルネンを、含金属触媒として周期律表第１０族遷移金属元素の原子を含有する金属化合物を用いて重合して、ノルボルナン骨格含有重合体を生成させる。【選択図】なし
