(57) [Summary]nDisclosed are methods for making olefin polymers, oligomeric catalysts for making olefin polymers, and bidentate ligands used to make these catalysts. The polymer can be made by contacting the monomer with a Group 8-10 transition metal catalyst. The polymer is suitable for processing in conventional extrusion processes and can be in the form of a high barrier sheet or film, or a low molecular weight resin for use in wax coatings or synthetic waxes in emulsions. |
