  • Patent number: 10626202
    Abstract: Monomodal copolymers of ethylene and molding compositions comprising such copolymers, wherein the copolymers have a density determined according to DIN EN ISO 1183-1, variant A in the range from 0.938 to 0.944 g/cm3, a melt index MFR21 determined according to ISO 1133 at 190° C. under a load of 21.6 kg in the range from 12 to 17 g/10 min, a weight average molar mass Mw in the range from 140 000 g/mol to 330 000 g/mol, a polydispersity Mw/Mn in the range from 9 to 17, and a content of comonomer side chains per 1000 carbon atoms Cx equal to or above a value defined via equation (I) Cx=128.7?134.62×d?, wherein d? is the numerical value of the density of the copolymer in g/cm3, the use of the copolymers for producing injection-molded articles, as well as injection-molded articles comprising the copolymers, and process for the preparation of such monomodal copolymers.

  • Publication number: 20100301054
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a polyethylene molding composition which has a multimodal molar mass distribution and is particularly suitable for thermoforming to produce fuel containers having a capacity in the range from 20 to 200 I. The molding composition has a density at a temperature of 23° C. in the range from 0.948 to 0.953 g/cm3 and an MFR190/21.6 in the range from 4.5 to 6 g/10 min. It comprises from 40 to 50% by weight of a low molecular weight ethylene homopolymer A, from 35 to 45% by weight of a high molecular weight copolymer B of ethylene and another olefin having from 4 to 8 carbon atoms and from 10 to 25% by weight of an ultrahigh molecular weight ethylene copolymer C.

  • Patent number: 6730753
    Abstract: Catalyst systems of the Ziegler-Natta type, which are suitable for the polymerization of olefins are prepared by: A) bringing an inorganic metal oxide on which a magnesium compound has been deposited into contact with a tetravalent titanium compound, B) if desired, bringing the intermediate obtained in this way into contact with an electron donor compound and C) bringing the intermediate obtained in step A) or B) into contact with a polysiloxane.
