Cycloolefinic polymer compositions exhibiting an advantageous balance of
dimensional stability, improved impact resistance and superior optical
properties are provided. The cycloolefinic polymer compositions of the
invention generally include at least one cycloolefinic polymer and an
effective amount of an elastomeric copolymer having an aromatic vinyl
content of from 14 to 39 weight percent. The cycloolefinic polymer
compositions may be incorporated into a variety of products, including
multilayer films.
