The invention relates to comb polymers which comprise, in the main chain, repeating units which are derived from polyolefin-based macromonomers, and repeating units which are derived from low molecular monomers which are selected from the group consisting of styrene monomers having 8-17 carbon atoms, alkyl(meth)acrylates having 1-10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, vinyl esters having 1-11 carbon atoms in the acyl group, vinyl ethers having 1-10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, (Di)alkylfumarates having 1-10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, (Di)alkylmaleates having 1-10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group and mixtures of said monomers. The molar branching degree lies in the region between 0.1-10 mol. % and the comb polymer represents the sum of at least 80 wt. %, in relation to the weight of the repeating units, on repeating units which are derived from polyolefin-based macromonomers, and repeating units which are selected from low molecular monomers which are selected from the group consisting of styrene monomers having 8-17 carbon atoms, alkyl(meth)acrylates having 1-10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, vinyl esters having 1-11 carbon atoms in the acyl group, vinyl ethers having 1-10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, (Di)alkylfumarates having 1-10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, (Di)alkylmaleates having 1-10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, and mixtures of said monomers.
A comb polymer comprising, in the main chain, repeat units which are derived from polyolefin-based macromonomers, and repeat units which are derived from low molecular weight monomers selected from the group consisting of styrene monomers having from 8 to 17 carbon atoms, alkyl (meth)acrylates having from 1 to 10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, vinyl esters having from 1 to 11 carbon atoms in the acyl group, vinyl ethers having from 1 to 10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, (di)alkyl fumarates having from 1 to 10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, (di)alkyl maleates having from 1 to 10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, and mixtures of these monomers, wherein the molar degree of branching is in the range from 0.1 to 10 mol % and the comb polymer comprises a total of at least 80% by weight, based on the weight of the repeat units, of repeat units which are derived from polyolefin-based macromonomers, and repeat units which are derived from low molecular weight monomers selected from the group consisting of styrene monomers having from 8 to 17 carbon atoms, alkyl (meth)acrylates having from 1 to 10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, vinyl esters having from 1 to 11 carbon atoms in the acyl group, vinyl ethers having from 1 to 10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, (di)alkyl fumarates having from 1 to 10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, (di)alkyl maleates having from 1 to 10 carbon atoms in the alcohol group, and mixtures of these monomers, wherein the main chain has a glass transition temperature in the range from −30 to 100° C.
