Patent ID: 8597794

Claim:
A method for adhering a polyolefin resin to a substrate surface comprising: pre-treating the substrate surface by applying an adhesion agent to the substrate surface, the adhesion agent comprising at least one C 3 -C 200 olefin compound having at least one metathesis active double bond, wherein the olefin is substituted with a moiety selected from the group consisting of thiol, thioether, ketone, aldehyde, ester, ether, amine, amide, nitro, carboxylic acid, disulfide, carbonate, isocyanate, phosphate, phosphite, sulfate, sulfite, sulfonyl, carbodiimide, carboalkoxy, carbamate, halogen, and pseudohalogen; and at least one compatibilizing functionality for interacting with the substrate surface; and applying the polyolefin resin to the pre-treated surface in the presence of the metal carbene metathesis catalyst.
