20120178333 | Bi-modal Poly-alpha-olefin Blend - A low viscosity, high tensile strength polymer having a bi-modal molecular weight distribution is produced using a combination of high molecular weight polymer and low molecular weight polymer. The polymer chains have a high content of meso dyads that results in a greater amount of crystalline regions when the polymer is solidified. The low molecular weight chains provide high flow characteristics when the polymer is molten. The process for producing the high content of meso dyads includes the use of an external donor catalyst during the reaction. | 07-12-2012 |
