The terpolymerization of ethylene, styrene, and carbon monoxide was accompl
ished by two different palladium-based catalysts: a phosphine-based ligand
system and a nitrogen-based ligand system. The range of possible compositio
ns and the composition dependence of the properties of the resulting polyme
rs were determined. These polymers were essentially carbon monoxide version
s of the ethylene styrene interpolymers recently presented by Dow. A compar
ison between the two families of polymers is attempted. (C) 2000 John Wiley
