    摘要: The ethylene-based polymers include a low molecular weight polymer fraction and a high molecular weight polymer fraction, which are divided by Smax on a molecular weight distribution (MWD) curve determined via absolute gel permeation chromatography. The low molecular weight polymer fraction and the high molecular weight polymer fraction include a Ladder character, L, defined for a given absolute molecular weight (MW) as the fit of the log of the intrinsic viscosity [h] versus the log of the absolute MW (M) curve using the expression, log[η]=log(β)+α log(M)−L*α log(2) according to a Mark-Houwink-Sakurada curve, in which log(β) is the intercept and ax is the slope. The low molecular weight polymer fraction has an MW below Smax and all values of L between −0.35 to 0.35; and the high molecular weight polymer fraction has an MW above Smax and a maximum value of L between 0.8 and 1.5.

    摘要: Embodiments of this disclosure are directed to ethylene-based polymers. The ethylene-based polymer are polymerized units derived from ethylene, diene, and optionally, one or more C3-C12 α-olefins. The ethylene-based polymer includes a melt viscosity ratio (V0.1/V100) at 190 C greater than 20. The V0.1 is the viscosity of the ethylene-based polymer at 190 C at a frequency of 0.1 radians/second, and the V100 is the viscosity of the ethylene-based polymer at 190 C at a frequency of 100 radians/second. Additionally, the ethylene-based polymer includes an average g greater than 0.86, where the average g′ is an intrinsic viscosity ratio determined by gel permeation chromatography using a triple detector.

    摘要: The present invention relates to compositions and processes of making ethylene/α-olefins. More particularly, the invention relates to processes of producing ethylene/α-olefin compositions having a controlled molecular weight distribution. The molecular weight distribution is controlled, for example, by controlling the relative monomer concentrations during contact with a pre-catalyst and/or using a catalyst comprising a catalytic amount of a molecule having the structure: wherein M=group 2-8 metal, preferably group 4 as a neutral or charged moiety; Y=any substituent including fused rings; L=any ligating group, especially a pyridyl or pyridylamide; X=alkyl, aryl, substituted alkyl, H or hydride, halide, or other anionic moiety; y=an integer from 0 to the complete valence of M; R=alkyl, aryl, haloalkyl, haloaryl, hydrogen, etc; x=1-6, especially 2; Dashed line=optional bond, especially a weak bond; and X and (CR2)x may be tethered or part of a ring.
