Process for producing a multimodal polyethylene in at least two reactors connected in series, in which 20-80wt% of a high molecular weight (HMW) polymer is made in suspension in a first reactor and 20-80wt% of a low molecular weight (LMW) polymer is made in suspension in a second reactor, wherein the ratio of the average activity in the LMW reactor to the average activity in the HMW reactor is from 0.25 and 1.5, where average activity in each reactor is defined as the rate of polyethylene produced in the reactor (kgPE/hr) /[ethylene concentration in the reactor (mol%) x residence time in the reactor (hours) x feed rate of catalyst into the reactor (g/hr)], residence time being defined as the mass of the polymer in the reactor (kg)/the output rate of polymer from the reactor (kg/hr), and wherein the volume of the second reactor is at least 10%, preferably at least 30% and more preferably at least 50% greater than the volume of the first reactor, and the ratio of length to diameter of the first reactor, L/D(l), is greater than that of the second reactor, L/D(2), and preferably at least 20% greater. |
