The invention includes a water-curable azidosilane grafted polymer selected
from the group consisting of (i) homogeneous ethylene polymers which has a
density less than or equal to about 0.900 g/cm.sup.3, and (ii)
interpolymers of at least one ethylene or .alpha.-olefin and at least one
vinylidene aromatic compound. The water-curable silane-grafted polymer may
comprise the reaction product of: at least one first polymer, the first
polymer selected from the group consisting of an interpolymer, a
substantially linear ethylene polymer, and a mixture thereof; the
interpolymer comprising polymer units of at least one ethylene or
.alpha.-olefin and at least one vinylidene aromatic compound; and at least
one monofunctional azidosilane. The invention further includes a process
for producing a water-curable silane-grafted polymer. A further embodiment
of the process of the invention comprises shaping the water-curable
silane-grafted polymer and contacting the shaped water curable
silane-grafted polymer to form a moisture-cured polymer. The invention
also includes the water curable silane-grafted polymers produced by either
of the two processs along with any articles obtainable from that water
curable silane-grafted polymer.
