Abstract: The present invention relates to a thermoplastic material, wherein the thermoplastic material comprises ethylene-based polymer material, wherein the ethylene-based polymer material has a Vicat softening temperature of ?50° C. as determined in accordance with ISO 306 (2013), method A50, and a weight loss as determined on a compression moulded sheet according to ISO 15527 (2010), Annex B, using silica sand/water slurry with a mass ratio of 3:2, test duration 7 h, of ?0.50 wt %. The invention also relates to a slurry transportation pipe comprising the thermoplastic material as its inner layer, or consisting of the thermoplastic material.

Abstract: A polyolefin composition includes: a) ?65.0 wt. % and ?94.0 wt. % of an ethylene alpha-olefin co-polymer (A); and b) ?6.0 wt. % and ?35.0 wt. % of an ethylene polymer (B). A foamed article contains such a polyolefin composition. The foamed article is obtained by compression foaming a foamable polyolefin composition or a foamable thermoplastic polymer composition. The foamed article can be used for improving the fatigue resistance and mechanical properties of midsole used in a footwear.
