A metallocene random copolymer of propylene and ethylene in which the ductile/brittle transition temperature of a molded article made from the copolymer may be in the range of from about 20&#xb0; F. (&#x2212;7&#xb0; C.) to about 40&#xb0; F. (4&#xb0; C.). The haze level of the molded article may be less than about 10 percent for an 80-mil (0.2 cm) thick plaque. The metallocene random copolymer may further include a clarifier.

Metallocene random copolymers with cool temperature impact properties

A polymeric composition comprising a polymer and a nucleation agent, and having isotropic shrinkage of less than about 20% and a differential shrinkage of less than about 20%.

Polymer compositions for reduced shrinkage

An impact copolymer having a flexural modulus (ASTM D-790) of at least about 1,100 MPa; a melt flow rate (ASTM D-1238) of at least about 15 g/10 min; and a maximum load under Dynatup Impact test (ASTM D-3763) of equal to or greater than about 1,700 N at a temperature of less than or equal to about &#x2212;40&#xb0; C. and articles of manufacture from same.
