Abstract: A polyolefin compsn. comprises: (A) 10-80 wt. % crystalline propylene homopolymer or copolymer with ethylene or 4-8C alpha -olefin, provided that max. polymerised ethylene or alpha -olefin content is 10 or 20 wt. % respectively; (B) 10-80 wt. % olefin polymer compsn. prepd. by sequential polymerisation in 2 or more stages and comprising: (i) 25-50 wt. % crystalline propylene homopolymer or copolymer with ethylene or 4-8C alpha -olefin having no ethylene/alpha -olefin content of 0.5-3 wt. % wherein (i) has a solubility in xylene of 4 % or less (where all solubilities are at room temp.); and (ii) 50-75 wt. % amorphous copolymer of ethylene with a 4-8C alpha -olefin having an alpha -olefin content of 10-20 wt. % wherein (ii) has a solubility in xylene of 10-40%; and opt. (c) 10-80 wt. % propylene polymer compsn. prepd. by sequential polymerisation in 2 or more stages and selected from: (C-1) a propylene polymer material comprising: (a) 10-60 wt. % crystalline homopolymerisation with an isotactic index (II) above 90, or crystalline propylene copolymer with ethylene and/or a CH2CHR (R=2-6C alkyl) olefin, contg. over 85 wt. % propylene and having a II of over 85; (b) 8-40 wt. % semi-crystalline linear copolymer fraction contg. propylene and above 40 wt. % ethylene, and insol. in xylene; and (c) 30-60 wt. % amorphous copolymer fraction contg. propylene, 40-70 wt. % ethylene and opt. a small amt. of diene, and soluble in xylene; and (C-2) a propylene polymer compsn. comprising: (a) 10-50 wt. % homo-polypropylene of II 80-98 %, or copolymer selected from (i) propylene and ethylene, (ii) propylene, ethylene and a CH2CHR alpha -olefin (R=2-8C)alkyl, and (iii) propylene and an alpha -olefin as in (a)(ii), wherein the copolymer contains 85-99 wt. % propylene and has an II of 80-98%; (b) 5-20 wt. % semi-crystalline, linear copolymer fraction of crystallinity 20-60% (by DSC), selected from a copolymer of (i) propylene and over 55 wt. % ethylene, (ii) ethylene, propylene and an alpha -olefin as (a) (ii) contg. 1-10 wt. % alpha -olefin and 55-98 wt. % ethylene plus alpha -olefin, and (iii) ethylene and an alpha -olefin as (a) (ii) contg. 55-98 wt. % alpha -olefin, wherein (b) is insol. in xylene; and (c) 40-80 wt. % copolymer fraction selected from a copolymer of (i) propylene and 20-40 wt. % ethylene, (ii) ethylene, propylene and an alpha -olefin as (a) (ii) contg. 1-10 wt. % alpha -olefin and 20-40 wt. % ethylene plus alpha -olefin, and (iii) ethylene and 20-40 wt. % alpha -olefin as (a) (ii), opt. contg. 0.5-10 wt. % diene, wherein (c) is soluble in xylene and has an I.V. of 1.7-3.0 dl/g, wherein in (C-2) the total amt. of ethylene and/or alpha -olefin units is 15-35 wt. % the total amt. of (b) and (c) fractions is 65-80 wt. % the wt. ratio of (b)/(c) is 0.1-0.3, and the total ethylene and/or 4-8C alpha -olefin content of (b+c) is below 50 wt. %; or (D) 5-40 wt. % olefin rubber selected from an ethylene-propylene copolymer rubber contg. 40-80 wt. % ethylene, and an ethylene-propylene-conjugated diene terpolymer rubber contg. 40-77 wt. % ethylene and 2-10 wt. % diene.
