Abstract

This introductory chapter provides an introduction to polyolefins and deals with its development and future prospects. Polyolefins are the most widely used commercial polymers because of their excellent combination of chemical and physical properties along with low cost, superior processibility, and good recyclability. By controlling crystallinity and molecular weight, polyolefins with a wide range of thermal and mechanical properties have been produced for wide range of commercial applications. The chapter provides an overview of the key components and steps in the coordination polymerization. This book captures some of the most important recent advances in the polyolefins, with the emphasis on functionalization approaches and an understanding of their scope and limitations.
