Abstract:
1. A polymer composition comprising a metallocene catalyzed reactor blend of: a) 10 to 30 weight percent semicrystalline minor component having 65 to 75 weight percent ethylene derived units; 0 to 10 weight percent diene derived units; and alpha-olefin derived units having 3 to 10 carbon atoms making up the remainder of the minor component; and b) 70 to 90 weight percent amorphous major component having 60 to 70 weight percent ethylene derived units; 0 to 10 weight percent diene derived units; and alpha olefin derived units having 3 to 10 carbon atoms making up the remainder of the major component; wherein the viscosity of the major component is less than one fourth the viscosity of the minor component, and wherein the blend has a diene content of at least 0.5 weight percent based on the total weight of the blend.
