Abstract

Interpolymer of a) a mono-olefin selected from the group consisting of .alpha.-olefins and cyclic olefins, and b) a non-conjugated polyene having at least 7 carbon atoms and having two readily polymerizable double bonds, having an improved melt tension, improved processability, or a combination of both, a process of preparing such interpolymers, composition comprising such interpolymers and one or more further natural or synthetic polymers or one or more additives or adjuvants, as well as articles obtained by subjecting such interpolymers to melt processing conditions.
