POLYETHYLENE COMPOSITION SUITABLE FOR STRETCH FILM APPLICATIONS, AND METHOD OF PRODUCING THE SAME

摘要

The instant invention provides a polyethylene composition suitable for stretch film applications and, method of producing the same, and cast film made therefrom. The linear low density polyethylene composition suitable for stretch film applications according to the present invention comprises: less than or equal to 100 percent by weight of the units derived from ethylene; and less than 35 percent by weight of units derived from one or more a-olefin comonomers; wherein said linear low density polyethylene composition has a density in the range of from 0.900 to 0.930 g/cm3, a molecular weight distribution (Mw/Mn) in the range of from 2.5 to 4.5, a melt index (I2) in the range of from 0.3 to 10 g/10 minutes, a molecular weight distribution (Mz/Mw) in the range of from 2.2 to 3, vinyl unsaturation of less than 0.1 vinyls per one thousand carbon atoms present in the backbone of said composition, and a zero shear viscosity ratio (ZSVR) in the range from 1 to 1.2.
