Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for producing a propylene terpolymer comprising comonomer units derived from ethylene and from one alpha-olefin selected from the group of C4-C8 alpha-olefins and being characterized by a total content of comonomer units not less than 8 % wt and a value of the ratio of ethylene to the C4-C8 alpha-olefins ranging from 0.1 to 0.8, said process being carried out in a gas-phase reactor comprising two interconnected polymerization zones. The present invention further relates to the propylene terpolymer obtained by said process particularly suitable to be used as films such as cast films, bi- or mono-oriented films and heat-sealable films having good optical properties and excellent sealing properties combined with good shrinkage properties and softness.
Abstract:
A process for the preparation of a propylene copolymer composition having a Flexural modulus lower than 500MPa, a total ethylene content higher than 9% and a Xylene soluble fraction at room temperature higher than 20% comprising at least one polymerization step carried out in a gas-phase polymerization reactor comprising at least two interconnected polymerization zones said process being characterized by the fact that at least 30% by weight of said xylene soluble fraction is produced in the polymerization step carried out in a gas-phase polymerization reactor comprising at least two interconnected polymerization zones.
Abstract:
Mono-oriented film having a shrink rate at 100°C of at least 15% and at least one layer of which comprises a propylene copolymer with ethylene and optionally other olefins of formula CH2=CHR in which R is an alkyl group containing from 2 to 10 carbon atoms, having at least 5.5% wt of ethylene, a melt flow rate according to ISO 1133 (230°C, 2.16 Kg) of less than 10, and a fraction of polymer soluble in xylene at 25°C ranging from 14 to 30% weight based o the total weight of said copolymer. The said films are particularly suited for the manufacturing of shrink labels.
