A styrenic block copolymer composition comprising a hydrogenated high vinyl block copolymer and/or a high vinyl styrene-ethylene/butylene-styrene (SEBS) copolymer is mixed with a thermoplastic resin to form a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) composition. TPE compositions comprising hydrogenated high vinyl block copolymers with relatively high molecular weight compounded with polypropylene provide compounds with high flow properties, high clarity, low haze, which exhibit higher tensile strength and elongation at break than prior art compositions. High vinyl SEBS TPE compositions exhibiting high melt flow can be used in many applications, either as a neat polymer or in a compound, to produce medical devices including tubes, over molding applications for personal care, soft touch materials, automotive parts, blown film, dipped goods, materials with oxygen absorbing capability, oil gel compositions, radiation curable hot melt adhesive compositions, hot melt pressure sensitive adhesives, sealant formulations, elastic films, fibers and non-woven compounds.

Dual composition block copolymers made from conjugated diene and monovinyl aromatic monomers in batch organolithium initiated polymerization show advantageous performance in the production of crosslinked microcellular rubber compounds and pressure sensitive hot melt adhesives. The dual composition block copolymers are partially coupled with a coupling agent linking inner monovinyl aromatic blocks. Their un-coupled low molecular weight fraction has greater monovinyl aromatic repeating unit content than their coupled high molecular weight fraction. Crosslinked microcellular rubber articles made from the dual composition block copolymers exhibit lower density, smaller and more homogeneous cell size, higher softness and higher resiliency than prior art block copolymers. Rubber compounding of formulations comprising the dual composition block copolymers proceed at slightly lower torque and slightly lower temperature than with prior art block copolymers. Pressure sensitive hot melt adhesives formulated with the dual composition block copolymers are very well suited for labels, exhibiting higher tack and higher softening temperature than those made from prior art block copolymers.

A counter tapered diblock copolymer composition comprises a monovinyl aromatic monomer A polymerized with a conjugated diene monomer B to form the structure A- [A/B], where the [A/B] block is a copolymer of the A and B monomers that is counter tapered, which means the ratio of B to A is lower proximal to the A block relative to the ratio of B to A distal to the A block. The [A/B] block preferably has a vinyl content that is higher proximal to the A block relative to the vinyl content distal to the A block. The diblock copolymer is preferably partially coupled or formed with a multifunctional initiator to provide a mixture of the diblock copolymer composition and a linear (A- [A/B])-X-([B/A]-A) structure and/or a coupled radial and/or multiarm structure (A- [A/B])n-X, where X is the residue of a coupling agent or an initiator. Asphalt and adhesive compositions are made with the diblock copolymer composition and with the mixture.
Polar modifier systems based on a blend of DTHFP, ETE, TMEDA, DMTHFMA and/or functionally similar compounds with BDMAEE and SMT are used to make block copolymers having high levels of pendant vinyl double bond repeat units, which is through highly selective 1,2-bond butadiene addition, low vinylcyclopentane formation, unimodal narrow molecular weight distribution, and a low level of randomized co-monomer repeat units. The block copolymers have very high levels of 1,2-vinyl content and high 3,4-vinyl bond addition of the conjugated diene monomer and low vinylcyclopentane content. The polar modifier systems provide a fast polymerization rate, with a unimodal narrow molecular weight distribution. The polar modifier systems allow operation at a higher temperature than in prior art systems, which reduces cooling requirements.

A tapered triblock copolymer having controlled vinyl distribution, enlarged middle block with intermediate composition and microstructure, increased compatibility between its adjacent blocks, good processing characteristics and a peak average molecular weight between 25,000 and 300,000 is made by anionically polymerizing conjugated diene and monovinyl aromatic monomers, polar modifier and initiator to make a first block rich in conjugated diene, forming a second block that is a copolymer of the conjugated diene and the monovinyl aromatic monomer and which is less rich in the conjugated diene than the first block, and forming a third block that is a homopolymer of the monovinyl aromatic monomer. The first, second and third blocks comprise 30 to 60, 20 to 50wt % and 10 to 40 wt % of the tapered triblock copolymer, respectively. The tapered triblock copolymers may be used as asphalt modifiers, adhesives, sealants, compatibilizers, reinforcing agents and impact modifiers.

Abrégé
The invention relates to a polymeric composition having elastomeric properties over wide temperature ranges, of the type that comprises polymers and/of copolymers which are derived from substituted or non-substituted vinylaromatic monomers and compatible, homogeneous diene monomers. The inventive composition is based on stereoregular polymers and does not require the use of compatibilizer agents. The invention further relates to the method of obtaining said compositions and of hydrogenating same without the need for additional catalysts or methods.

This invention describes the obtainment of impact-resistant materials from a block copolymer that comprises as monomers an alkadiene (conjugated diene) and a vinyl aromatic compound, which is used as impact modifier to obtain such materials and in which, at least, one of the blocks of the vinyl aromatic compound is polydisperse. The invention allows obtaining morphologies such as rods, points or capsules by incorporating such copolymer into a polymeric matrix derived from vinyl aromatic monomers independently from other agents such as chain transfer agents, and achieving increases, in the impact values up to 50% through the use of the copolymer of this invention.
