Both functional polyolefins and polyolefin block/graft copolymers have been shown
to dramatically increase in polyolefin adhesion, compatibility, wettability, printability,
and ion conductivity through functionalization [71–78]. Traditionally, they are the
most difficult areas for polyolefin application and limit polyolefins in high-end
applications. I have discussed new applications such as dielectrics for energy storage.
