Abstract: This invention relates to blends of linear low density polyethylene copolymers with other linear low density polyethylenes or very low density, low density, medium density, high density, and differentiated polyethylenes. The invention also includes articles produced from the linear low density polyethylene and polyethylene blends described.

Abstract: An improved multi-layer film and packaging, including heavy duty sacks made therefrom having improved properties that permit processing on high speed bagging/Form Fill-Seal equipment are disclosed. The multi-layer films of the invention include a mLLDPE-containing skin layer and a core layer that includes both HDPE and mLLDPE.

Abstract: The invention relates to a polymer comprising units derived from ethylene, said polymer having: a) a Melt Index of from 0.05 to 20 g/10 min as determined by ASTM-1238 Condition E; b) at least 10 per 1000 C-atoms of short chain branches, containing five carbon atoms or less, as determined by C13 NMR, and less than 3.5 mol %, of units derived from a copolymerizable ethylenically unsaturated ester, c) a density of from 0.90 to 0.94 g/cm3, preferably 0.91 to 0.935 g/cm3, especially 0.92 to 0.93 g/cm3 as determined by ASTM D1505, and d) a relaxation time as described herein of at least 10 s. Such polymers are obtainable by polymerization by free radical polymerization using a chain transfer agent that incorporates into the polymer chain such as an alpha-olefin, preferably propylene, as a chain transfer agent, preferably in a tubular reactor under circumstances to favor LCB formation in a down stream part of the tubular reactor.
