In a method for the manufacture of a hydrocarbon resin made of at least one cyclic diolefin component and at least one ethylenically unsaturated aromatic component having 8 to 13 carbon atoms, the monomer mixture is heated to a polymerisation temperature of at least 180? C. at a heating speed of 0.5 to 10? C./second to obtain a hydrocarbon resin with a reduced amount of by-products, wherein the monomer mixture is essentially liquid in a single phase during the heating to at least 180? C. and during polymerisation, and the subsequently hydrogenated hydrocarbon resin has good compatibility with other components of hot-melt adhesives.

The present invention relates to ethylene-1-hexene-1-butene terpolymer and a film including the same. The ethylene-1-hexene-1-butene terpolymer according to the present invention has an optimized range of density and melt index and includes 1-hexene and 1-butene as comonomers, and can provide a polymer showing excellent properties by regulating the content ratio of the comonomers in a certain range. Therefore, the film prepared by using the same can be usefully used because it has excellent stickiness, processibility, and falling dart impact strength which are especially suitable for stretch films.
