Abstract:
1. An ethylene-based polymer with a density from about 0.90 to about 0.94 in grams per cubic centimeter, a molecular weight distribution (M w /M n ,) from about 2 to about 30, a melt index (I 2 ) from about 0.1 to about 50 grams per 10 minutes, and further comprising from about 5 to about 4000 parts per million by weight of sulfur as determined using a Total Sulfur Concentration method and based upon the total weight of the ethylene-based polymer, and wherein the ethylene-based polymer is formed from a reaction mixture comprising a “sulfur containing compound” containing a -S- functional group, in addition to carbon atoms substituted with hydrogen atoms, and where a portion of the hydrogen atoms may optionally be substituted by inert substituents or moieties.
