. The monomer composition and thermal properties of the copolymers were characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)
differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The saturated polymers exhibited high decomposition temperatures (

) in the range from 117.5℃ to 219.7℃. What is more
tensile tests indicated that the mechanical properties of the COPs could be effectively tuned in a wide range by introducing varying amount of small cyclic olefin such as DCPD or NBE.
