Abstract:
A process for producing clear injection stretch blow molded containers comprising: (I) molding a propylene polymer composition comprising: (A) a propylene polymer chosen from: (i) a homopolymer or minirandom copolymer of propylene containing up to 1.0 wt% of at least one of ethylene and C 4 -C 10 α-olefins; (ii) a random copolymer of propylene and at least one olefin chosen from ethylene and C 4 -C 10 α-olefins; and (iii) mixtures thereof, the propylene polymer having a melt flow rate of from about 1 to about 50; and (B) about 1 to about 1000ppm, based on the weight of the propylene polymer, of at least one radiant heat absorbent; thereby forming a preform; and (II) stretch blow molding the preform; wherein in step II, heat is supplied by infrared radiation, and the containers have a haze valve less than 25.0%.
Abstract:
A process for the preparation of high purity propylene polymers carried out in the presence of a catalyst comprising the product obtained by contacting: (a) a solid catalyst component comprising Mg, Ti and at least a first internal electron donor compound (1ID) selected among the succinates and a second internal electron donor compound (2ID) selected among the 1,3-diethers, wherein the molar ratio of first internal donor over second internal donor 1ID:2ID is comprised between 4:6 and 9:1, with (b) an organo-aluminium compound, and optionally with (c) an external electron donor compound, said process being carried out at a temperature equal or higher than78°C and by employing a molar ratio of organo-aluminum compound over solid catalyst component (b):(a) of lower than 5.
Abstract:
Polypropylene compositions, particularly suited for preparation of stretched/oriented articles, especially for injection stretch blow moulded bottles, comprising: A) one or more propylene homopolymers or propylene copolymers or their mixtures; B) from 500 to about 1500 ppm by weight of talc in form of particles having average particle diameter of equal to or less than 1.5 µm. Said compositions display higher crystallization temperature with respect to the same polyolefin (A) without addition of (B), while keeping good levels of transparency, particularly when (A) is or comprises a random polymer.
Abstract:
A polyolefin composition comprising (parts by weight) (A) 100 parts of a crystalline isotactic propylene polymer resin having a molecular weight distribution (Mw/Mn) less than 3, the proportion of inversely inserted propylene units based on 2,1 insertions of a propylene monomer in all propylene insertions, i.e. 2,1 insertions, is as low as 0.5% or less, and a value of the melt flow rate (MFR) from 20 to 60 g/10 min; and (B) 0.1-1 part of a high molecular weight propylene polymer (B) having a value of melt strength from 5 to 4O cN. Fibres prepared from the said composition exhibit a good balance between elasticity and tenacity.
