  • Catalyst compositions and polyolefins for extrusion coating applications
    Patent number: 8030241
    Abstract: This invention relates to the field of olefin polymerization catalyst compositions, and methods for the polymerization and copolymerization of olefins, including polymerization methods using a supported catalyst composition. In one aspect, the present invention encompasses a catalyst composition comprising the contact product of a first metallocene compound, a second metallocene compound, at least one chemically-treated solid oxide, and at least one organoaluminum compound. The new resins were characterized by useful properties in impact, tear, adhesion, sealing, extruder motor loads and pressures at comparable melt index values, and neck-in and draw-down.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 29, 2009
    Date of Patent: October 4, 2011
    Assignee: Chevron Phillips Chemical Company, LP
    Inventors: Michael D. Jensen, Max P. McDaniel, Joel L. Martin, Elizabeth A. Benham, Randy Muninger, Gary Jerdee, Ashish M. Sukhadia, Qing Yang, Matthew G. Thorn
