A short-chain-branched polypropylene having xylene solubles of at least 0.5 percent by weight is provided. In certain embodiments the polypropylene has a strain hardening index of at least 0.15 as measured by a deformation rate of 1.00 s−1 at a temperature of 180° C. In certain embodiments, the strain hardening index is defined as the slope of the logarithm to the basis 10 of the tensile stress growth function as function of the logarithm to the basis 10 of the Hencky strain for the range of the Hencky strains between 1 and 3. The polypropylene may have xylene solubles in the range of 0.5 to 1.5 percent by weight. In certain embodiments, the polypropylene has a strain hardening index in the range of 0.15 to 0.30. In certain embodiments, the polypropylene has a melting point of at least 148° C.
