    摘要: Ethylene-based polymers comprise reaction products of polymerizing ethylene monomer, at least one diene or polyene comonomer, and optionally at least one C3 to C14 comonomer under defined polymerization reaction conditions, the ethylene-based polymer having: an Mw/Mw0 greater than 1.20. The Mw0 is the initial weight-average molecular weight of a comparative ethylene-based polymer by gel permeation chromatography. The comparative ethylene-based polymer being a reaction product of polymerizing ethylene monomer and all C3 to C14 comonomers present in the ethylene-based polymer, if any, without the at least one polyene comonomer, under the defined polymerization reaction conditions; and a molecular weight tail quantified by an MWD area metric, ATAIL, and ATAIL is less than or equal to 0.04 as determined by gel permeation chromatography using a triple detector.

    摘要: A copolymer comprising repeating units derived from ethylene, at least one C3-C20-α-olefin, at least one non-conjugated diene, and at least one dual polymerizable diene, wherein the copolymer has



    (i) an intensity ratio D of ≤0.5 and
    (ii) a molecular weight distribution (MWD)≥R, wherein R depends on the branching index g′(III) of the copolymer and
    wherein R is −27.7 times g′(III)+29.2, when g′(III) is ≤0.90; and R is 4.3 when g′(III) is >0.90 and up to 0.99.




    Also provided is a catalyst composition for making such copolymers containing at least two different metal complexes, a process for making the catalyst composition, a process for making the copolymer and to articles obtained with the copolymer.
