Ethylene-based polymers having a density of 0.952 to 0.968 g/cm, a ratio of HLMI/MI from 185 to 550, an IB parameter from 1.46 to 1.80, a tan δ at 0.1 secfrom 1.05 to 1.75 degrees, and a slope of a plot of viscosity versus shear rate at 100 secfrom 0.18 to 0.28 are described, with low melt flow versions having a HLMI from 10 to 30 g/10 min and a Mw from 250,000 to 450,000 g/mol, and high melt flow versions having a HLMI from 30 to 55 g/10 min and a Mw from 200,000 to 300,000 g/mol. These polymers have the processability of chromium-based resins, but with improved stress crack resistance and topload strength for bottles and other blow molded products.

Dual metallocene polyethylene with improved processability for lightweight blow molded products

Ethylene-based polymers having a density of 0.952 to 0.965 g/cm, a high load melt index (HLMI) from 5 to 25 g/10 min, a weight-average molecular weight from 275,000 to 450,000 g/mol, a number-average molecular weight from 15,000 to 40,000 g/mol, a viscosity at HLMI from 1400 to 4000 Pa-sec, and a tangent delta at 0.1 secfrom 0.65 to 0.98 degrees. These polymers have the processability of chromium-based resins, but with improved stress crack resistance, and can be used in large-part blow molding applications.

Blow molding polymers with improved cycle time, processability, and surface quality

Ethylene-based polymers having a density of 0.952 to 0.968 g/cm, a ratio of HLMI/MI from 185 to 550, an IB parameter from 1.46 to 1.80, a tan &#x3b4; at 0.1 secfrom 1.05 to 1.75 degrees, and a slope of a plot of viscosity versus shear rate at 100 secfrom 0.18 to 0.28 are described, with low melt flow versions having a HLMI from 10 to 30 g/10 min and a Mw from 250,000 to 450,000 g/mol, and high melt flow versions having a HLMI from 30 to 55 g/10 min and a Mw from 200,000 to 300,000 g/mol. These polymers have the processability of chromium-based resins, but with improved stress crack resistance and topload strength for bottles and other blow molded products.

A polyolefin having a density of greater than about 0.930 g/ml which when extruded at a temperature in the range of from about 590&#xb0; F. to about 645&#xb0; F. and then coated onto a substrate at a rate of from about 300 ft/min to about 1000 ft/min has an edge weave of from about 0 in/side to about 2.5 in/side and a neck-in of less than about 3.0 in/side.
