Abstract:
1. A process for preparing an imide functionalized olefin multiblock interpolymer, said process comprising: A) grafting onto the backbone of an olefin multiblock interpolymer, in a melt reaction, at least one compound of the following formula (IV) to form a grafted olefin multiblock interpolymer: B) and thermally treating the grafted olefin multiblock interpolymer to form the imide functionalized olefin multiblock interpolymer, and wherein R1 and R2 are, independently, either hydrogen or a C1-C20 hydrocarbyl radical, which is linear or branched; R3 is hydrogen or a C1-C20 hydrocarbyl radical, which is linear or branched; R4 is a divalent hydrocarbyl radical, which is linear or branched; X is OH or NHR
