Patent ID: 10442879

Abstract:
An impact copolymer comprising a polypropylene comprising at least 50 mol % propylene, and having a molecular weight distribution (MwMALLS/Mn) greater than 10, a branching index (g′) of less than 0.97, and a melt strength greater than 40 cN, and an elastomer. Also disclosed is a method of making an impact copolymer composition comprising melt-blending the components, sequentially or simultaneously a polypropylene resin comprising at least 50 mol % propylene, and having a molecular weight distribution (Mw/Mn) greater than 6, a branching index (g′) of at least 0.97, and a melt strength greater than 10 cN determined using an extensional rheometer at 190° C.; and within the range from 0.01 to 3 wt % of at least one organic peroxide; and an elastomer.
