Abstract: Disclosed is a polyethylene composition. The composition comprises single-site multimodal resin A and single-site multimodal resin B, wherein resin A differs from resin B in molecular weight, in monomeric composition, in density, in long chain branch concentration or distribution, or in combinations thereof. Disclosed is also a method for making the polyethylene composition. The method comprises polymerizing, in the presence of two or more single-site catalysts, ethylene or its mixture with a C3-C10 ?-olefin to form a first multimodal resin and continuing the polymerization in the presence of the same catalysts but in a different hydrogen concentration, in a different monomer composition, or at a different temperature to form a second multimodal resin.

Abstract: A process is provided for producing ethylene (co)polymer nanocomposites in a high pressure polymerization reactor. The process by which nanocomposites having organically modified clays incorporated and intimately dispersed therein involves polymerizing ethylene and one or more optional comonomers under high pressure polymerization conditions in the presence of an organic peroxide initiator and organically modified clay.

Abstract: Disperse dyed polyethylene fibers obtained by either melt spinning or flash spinning and materials produced from said fibers are provided. The process utilizes dye blends containing at least three and, more preferably, four or more disperse dyes selected from a primary color group. The individual dyes are utilized at a concentration of at lest 75% but less than 100% of the determined maximum concentration which produces crocking. HDPE and LLDPE materials are effectively dyed using disperse dye blends formulated by the invention.

Abstract: A blend comprising a high molecular weight, medium density polyethylene (HMW, MDPE) and a linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) is disclosed. The blend comprises from about 20 wt % to about 80 wt % of HMW MDPE. The HMW MDPE has a density from about 0.92 to about 0.944 g/cc, a melt index MI2 from about 0.01 to about 0.5 dg/min, and a melt flow ratio MFR from about 50 to about 300. The blend also comprises about 20 wt % to about 80 wt % of LLDPE. The LLDPE has a density within the range of about 0.90 to about 0.925 g/cc and an MI2 within the range of about 0.50 to about 50 dg/min. The blend provides films with significantly improved toughness and tear strength compared to MDPE or HDPE, and high modulus compared to LLDPE.
