Disclosed is a polyethylene composition having faster crystallization rate and improved environmental stress cracking resistance. The polyethylene composition comprises a multimodal polyethylene and a nucleating agent. The multimodal polyethylene comprises from 25 to 50 wt % of a low molecular weight ethylene homopolymer component, from 25 to 50 wt % of a medium molecular weight ethylene copolymer component and from 25 to 50 wt % of a high molecular weight ethylene copolymer component. The polyethylene composition has an environmental stress cracking resistance (ASTM D1693, Condition B in 100% Igepal) greater than or equal to 40 days and a crystallization half time less than or equal to 70% of the crystallization half time of the multimodal polyethylene without nucleating agent. |
