Patent ID: 7964320

Claim:
A method for adhering a polyolefin resin to a substrate surface comprising: contacting a polyolefin resin or a polymerizable olefin composition with an adhesion agent in the presence of a metal carbene metathesis catalyst to form a polyolefin resin/agent mixture or a polymerizable olefin/agent mixture, 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 first 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 mixture to the substrate surface.
