Terpolymerizations of newly synthesized ethylene (E), vinylcyclohexene (VCH), and 1-hexene were carried out with symmetrical metallocene catalysts -MeSi(2-Me-4-Ph-Ind)ZrCl (catalyst A) and -Et(Ind)ZrCl (catalyst B). X-ray diffractometry (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), high-temperature gel permeation chromatography (GPC), and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy were used to evaluate the behavior and microstructure of the polymers. The activity of catalyst B was 1.
