Process for producing ionomers employing ethylene terpolymers

A process for the production of an ionomers containing ethylenically-unsaturated structural units comprising contacting: (a) a terpolymer containing structural units produced from (i) at least one alpha -olefin having from 2 to 8 carbon atoms; (ii) at least one ester of alpha, beta-ethylenically-uns...

Zusammenfassung:A process for the production of an ionomers containing ethylenically-unsaturated structural units comprising contacting: (a) a terpolymer containing structural units produced from (i) at least one alpha -olefin having from 2 to 8 carbon atoms; (ii) at least one ester of alpha, beta-ethylenically-unsaturated carboxylic acids; and (iii) at least one carboxylic acid with; (b) an inorganic metal-containing base under conditions effective to convert at least a portion of acid functionalities to inorganic metal salts thereof.
