Abstract:
Bimodal polypropylene compositions and a process to form melt blended bimodal polypropylene compositions comprising combining at least two polypropylenes in at least a two-pass process, and forming a bimodal polypropylene composition having a Flexural Modulus (190° C., 1% secant) of at least 1700 MPa, as well as one or more other selected properties. These compositions are suitable for thermoformed articles and injection molded articles, any of which may be foamed.

Claim (Index 10):
The process of  claim 1 , wherein the two-pass process comprises:\n a) combining 5 wt % to 65 wt % (based upon weight of the combined components) of a HMW polypropylene having an Mw of 300,000 g/mol or more and an Mw/Mn of within the range from 2.0 to 4.5, with 35 wt % to 95 wt % (based upon weight of the combined components) of a LMW polypropylene having an Mw of 300,000 g/mol or less and an Mw/Mn within the range from 2.0 to 4.5, where the difference in Mw between the HMW polypropylene and the LMW PP polypropylene is at least 100,000 g/mol; b) melt blending in an extruder the components in a) at a melt T melt  within the range from 140\u00b0 C. to 230\u00b0 C.; c) introducing the first melt blend from b) into the same or different extruder and further melt blending the solid blend, where the extruder at a T melt  within the range from 140\u00b0 C. to 230\u00b0 C.; and d) isolating the blend produced in step c) to produce the bimodal polypropylene composition.
