Disclosed is a bimodal Ziegler-Natta catalyzed polyethylene, having a density of from 0.930 g/cc to 0.960 g/cc, and a molecular weight distribution of from 10 to 25, wherein an article formed therefrom has a PENT of at least 1500. Also disclosed is a method of preparing a tubular article including obtaining a bimodal polyethylene having a density of from 0.930 g/cc to 0.960 g/cc and a molecular weight distribution of from 10 to 25, and processing the polyethylene under conditions where a specific energy input (SEI) is less than 300 kW·h/ton, and wherein the article has a PENT of at least 1500. Further disclosed is a method for controlling the degradation of polyethylene including polymerizing ethylene monomer, recovering polyethylene, extruding the polyethylene, and controlling the degradation of polyethylene by measuring the SEI to the extruder and adjusting throughput and/or gear suction pressure keep SEI less than 300 kW·h/ton, and forming an article.

Polyethylene modified by using radical initiators such as oxygen and peroxides sometimes has a yellow color which may be reduced or eliminated by incorporating additives such as polyethylene glycol, and/or neutralizing species such as alkali metal stearates, particularly calcium stearate, and zinc oxide.
摘要:
A polyethylene may be prepared using a mixture of a silica supported catalyst and a magnesium chloride supported catalyst. By changing the ratio of the two catalysts, the polyethylene produced may have a varying bulk density and shear response. The method allows for the tuning or targeting of properties to fit a specific application, such as a blow molding or vapor barrier film.

摘要:
Improving polyethylene film properties may be accomplished by measuring the specific energy input (SEI) to the extruder and then adjusting a process parameter in response to a change in the SEI and/or by introducing both a free radical initiator and an alkali earth metal stearate into the polymerization. Alternatively or in addition thereto, selecting the optimum free radical initiator for a particular polyethylene resin polymerized in the presence of a selected catalyst between two resin properties may be accomplished by examining the ratio of: % variation in a first property % variation in a second property of polyethylene resins individually made with each free radical initiator under consideration. The free radical initiator may be oxygen, peroxides, peroxyketals, peroxyesters, and/or dialkyl peroxides.
摘要:
Syndiotactic polypropylene blends having a unique set of mechanical properties may be prepared by blending syndiotactic polypropylene with a high molecular weight mineral oil, an ultra low density polyethylene, or both. The syndiotactic polypropylene blends of the present invention have been found to have reduced flexural modulus, reduced haze, improved impact strength and shorter injection molding cycle times. It has been determined that the addition of about 5 to about 10 percent high molecular weight mineral oil to a syndiotactic polypropylene can decrease flexural modulus values by about 25 to about 30 percent. Moreover, the addition of up to about 10 percent mineral oil to the syndiotactic polypropylene material does not show signs of bleeding or impair clarity, in fact, percent haze values are slightly improved with the addition of mineral oil. Additionally, injection molding cycle time optimization shows an improvement of about 12 seconds in overall cycle time utilizing a syndiotactic polypropylene blend with 5% mineral oil in comparison to a syndiotactic polypropylene without mineral oil. The syndiotactic polypropylene blends according to the present invention may be further processed according to accepted practices to make cast films, blown films, injection molded parts, blow molded containers, and other articles using basic plastics fabrication techniques as known in the art.
