Long chain branched (LCB), block, or interconnected copolymers of ethylene in combination with one other polymer

摘要

An ethylenic polymer comprising amyl groups from about 0.1 to about 2.0 units per 1000 carbon atoms as determined by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and both a peak melting temperature, T_m, in ° C., and a heat of fusion, H_f, in J/g, as determined by DSC Crystallinity, where the numerical values of T_m and H_f correspond to the relationship T_m≧(0.2143*H_f)+79.643. An ethylenic polymer comprising at least one preparative TREF fraction that elutes at 95° C. or greater using a Preparative Temperature Rising Elution Fractionation method, where at least one preparative TREF fraction that elutes at 95° C. or greater has a gpcBR value greater than 0.05 and less than 5 as determined by gpcBR Branching Index by 3D-GPC, and where at least 5% of the ethylenic polymer elutes at a temperature of 95° C. or greater based upon the total weight of the ethylenic polymer.
