  • Patent number: 5236998
    Abstract: A process for making a blend of high-density polyethylene polymers containing one or more C3 to C12 .alpha.-olefin comonomers. The process begins in two parallel streams. In one stream ethylene is polymerized alone, and in the second stream ethylene is polymerized with the comonomer(s). The two streams are combined in a subsequent reactor where the polymerization process is completed. The polymerization produces a polymer wherein the comonomer is concentrated in the higher molecular weight fractions.

  • Patent number: 4617352
    Abstract: Polyethylene blends for blow molding processes are disclosed, comprising from 12 to 25 weight percent of high molecular weight component, 5 to 83 weight percent of a medium molecular weight component, and 5 to 83 weight percent of the low molecular weight component, wherein the ratio of high molecular weight to medium molecular weight is greater or equal to 1.7 and the ratio of medium molecular weight to low molecular weight is greater or equal to 1.7, and wherein the blend has a melt index in the range of 0.01 to 2.0.

  • Patent number: 4539374
    Abstract: Processing properties of polyethylene resins are improved while retaining original physical properties by incorporating less than 1.5 weight percent of high molecular weight, non-crystalline polyolefins into the polyolefin resins. The resulting compositions exhibit reduced melt viscosity at high shear rates while providing essentially unchanged finished physical properties of the polyethylene article.
