Abstract:
A composition comprising a blend of:(a) 1 to 90 weight percent of a low melt index, medium density polyethylene with a narrow molecular weight distribution, having a melt index of from about 0.5-dg/min to about 10-dg/min and a polydispersity index of 9 or less,(b) 5 to 94 weight percent of a low density polyethylene homopolymer having a broad molecular weight distribution, having a melt index from about 3-dg/min to about 40-dg/min, and a polydispersity index of greater than 9; and(c) 5 to 65 weight percent of a linear low density polyethylene C.sub.3 -C.sub.10 alpha-olefin-ethylene copolymer having a melt index of from about 1-dg/min to about 10-dg/min, and a polydispersity index of 4 or less,wherein the total amount of components (a), (b) and (c) is sufficient to provide a composition suitable for extrusion coating.
