Abstract: A complex of formula (I): (I?) M is Hf; each X is a sigma ligand; L is a bridge of formula -(ER82)y—; y is 1 or 2; E is C or Si; each R8 is independently a C1-C20-hydrocarbyl, tri(C1-C20-alkyl)silyl, C6-C20-aryl, C7-C20-arylalkyl or C7-C20-alkylaryl or L is an alkylene group such as methylene or ethylene; Ar and Ar? are each independently an aryl or heteroaryl group optionally substituted by 1 to 3 groups R1 or R1? respectively; R1 and R1? are each independently the same or can be different and are a linear or branched C1-C6-alkyl group, C7-20 arylalkyl, C7-20 alkylaryl group or C6-20 aryl group with the proviso that if there are four or more R1 and R1? groups present in total, one or more of R1 and R1? is other than tert butyl; R2 and R2? are the same or are different and are a CH2—R9 group, with R9 being H or linear or branched C1-C6-alkyl group, C3-8 cycloalkyl group, C6-10 aryl group; each R is a —CH2—, —CHRx- or C(Rx)2- group wherein Rx is C1-4 alkyl and where m is 2-6; R5 is a linear or branched C1-C6-a

Abstract: The present invention relates to a heterophasic propylene polymer (HECO) comprising a) 65 to 90 wt. % of a matrix component (M) selected from a propylene homo- or random copolymer (PP); and b) 10 to 35 wt. % of an ethylene-propylene rubber (EPR), dispersed in the propylene homo- or random copolymer (PP), whereby the xylene cold soluble fraction (XCS) of the heterophasic propylene polymer (HECO) has—an ethylene content of 10.0 to 17.0 wt. %; —an intrinsic viscosity (IV), determined according to ISO 1628-1:2009, of at least 1.6 dl/g; and the xylene cold insoluble fraction (XCI) of the heterophasic propylene polymer (HECO) has 2, 1-erythro regiodefects in an amount of at least 0.4 mol % to a composition comprising the heterophasic propylene polymer (HECO), a process for its preparation and an article comprising the heterophasic propylene polymer (HECO) or the composition comprising the same.

Abstract: A propylene copolymer composition comprising A) a propylene butylene copolymer which is—free of phthalicacid esters as well as decomposition products thereof; —obtained by a Ziegler-Natta catalyst and B) at least one ?-nucleating agent, the propylene copolymer composition having—a MFR (2.16 kg/210° C.) in the range of 2 to 100 g/10 min—a melting point Tm(1) of less than 140° C.—a melting point Tm(2) of at least 150° C., said Tm(2) being associated with more than 75% of the total melting enthalpy and whereby the propylene copolymer—has monomer units derived from a) propylene in an amount of 90.0-98.0 mol.-% b) butylene in an amount of 2.0-10.0 mol.-% with respect to the total weight of the propylene butylene copolymer—an isotacticity mm % as determined by 13C NMR spectroscopy of below 99.0%; and—a Koenig-B parameter with respect to butylene as determined by 13C NMR spectroscopy of more than 0.98.
