Abstract
A copolymer of ethylene and of myrcene, in which the ethylene units represent between 50 mol % and 95 mol % of the ethylene units and of the myrcene units, and the myrcene units of 1,2 and 3,4 configuration represent more than 50 mol % of the myrcene units, is provided. Such a copolymer exhibits an improved compromise between the degree of crystallinity and the stiffness. It therefore makes it possible to widen the field of application of ethylene-rich diene copolymers in rubber compositions, and also to increase the production capacity of a unit for the synthesis of ethylene-rich diene polymers.
