Cyclic Olefin Terpolymers with High Refractive Index and High Optical Transparency

= 437 °C), slightly higher strain at break value (up to 7.4%) and higher tensile strength (up to 60.5 MPa). In particular, these noncrystalline optical COT materials have significantly higher refractive indices of 1.550-1.569 and are more transparent (transmittance: 93-95%), relative to the COC materials, indicative of an excellent optical material.
