Thermoplastic polyolefin compositions with ethylene-propylene copolymers
Abstract:
This invention relates to a thermoplastic polyolefin composition with (a) 45 wt % to 70 wt % of a polypropylene having 70 wt % or more units derived from propylene, having a melting point temperature of greater than 130° C. and a melt flow rate from 2 to 80 g/10 min; (b) 20 wt % to 30 wt % of a bimodal ethylene-propylene copolymer comprising: (i) 80 wt % to 90 wt % of an amorphous ethylene-propylene copolymer having about 30 wt % or more units derived from ethylene; (ii) 5 wt % to 15 wt % of a semi-crystalline ethylene-propylene copolymer having 70 wt % or more units derived from ethylene; and (iii) 1 wt % to 5 wt % of a propylene-based elastomer having within the range from 5 wt % to 25 wt % ethylene derived units and having a melting point temperature of less than 110° C. and a Mw/Mn within the range from 2.0 to 4.0.
