Abstract:
1. Propylene polymers comprising propylene homopolymers having melt indices of 0.05 to 15 g/10 min at 230° C./2.6 kg or propylene block copolymers of 90.0 to 99.9 wt % propylene and 0.1 to 10 wt % α-olefins of 2 or 4 to 18 carbon atoms having melt indices of 0.05 to 20 g/10 min at 230° C./2.16 kg, or mixtures thereof, wherein the propylene homopolymers or propylene block copolymers are β-nucleated, the β-nucleated propylene homopolymers having an IRτ≧0.98, a tensile modulus of ≧1500 MPa at +23° C. and a Charpy impact strength of ≧3 kJ/m 2 at −20° C. using notched test specimens, and the β-nucleated propylene block copolymers are polymers having an IRτ of the propylene homopolymer block of ≧0.98, a tensile modulus of ≧1100 MPa at +23° C. and a Charpy impact strength of ≧6 kJ/m 2 at −20° C. using notched test specimens.
