Patent ID: 7241840

Claim:
A composition comprising: (i) at least one silane possessing an unsaturated organic function; (ii) at least two free radical initiators, the first initiator having a first 0.1 hour half-life temperature and the second initiator having a second 0.1 hour half-life temperature, said second half-life temperature being between 30° C. and 90° C. higher than said first half-life temperature; (iii) optionally one or more condensation catalysts; (iv) optionally, one or more stabilizers, stabilizer packages, inhibitors or free radical scavengers; (v) optionally, additives such as fillers, colorants and processing aids; and, (vi) at least one thermoplastic polyolefin selected from the group consisting of high-pressure low-density polyethylene, medium/low-pressure high-density polyethylene, low-pressure low-density polyethylene, medium-density polyethylene, an ethylene-α-olefin copolymer, polypropylene, an ethylene-ethyl acrylate copolymer, an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, an ethylene-propylene copolymer, an ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer, an ethylene-butene copolymer, polymethyl-pentene-1, polybutene, chlorinated polyethylene, an ethylene-vinyl acetate-chlorine terpolymer, and mixtures thereof.
