Abstract

A method of making a thermoset polydicyclopentadiene by first combining a plurality of reactant streams, one containing the activator of a metathesis-catalyst system, a second containing the catalyst of a metathesis-catalyst system and at least one containing dicyclopentadiene; then immediately injecting this combination into a mold where polymerization results in the formation of a tough, rigid thermoset polymer with high modulus and excellent impact strength.
