A composition comprising a high molecular weight, chromium catalyzed ethylene copolymer (also referred to as a polyethylene resin), a nucleating agent and zinc oxide.

High density polyethylene for rigid articles

This disclosure relates to films comprising at least one layer of an ethylene interpolymer product. The ethylene interpolymer product comprises a first ethylene interpolymer, a second ethylene interpolymer and optionally a third ethylene interpolymer; wherein the ethylene interpolymer product has &#x2265;0.03 terminal vinyl unsaturations per 100 carbon atoms and &#x2265;3 parts per million (ppm) of a total catalytic metal; and optionally a Dilution Index, Y, greater than 0. The disclosed ethylene interpolymer products have a melt index from about 0.4 to about 10 dg/minute, a density from about 0.900 to about 0.940 g/cm, a polydispersity (M/M) from about 2 to about 12 and a CDBIfrom about 20% to about 98%. Further, the ethylene interpolymer products are a blend of at least two ethylene interpolymers; where one ethylene interpolymer is produced with a single-site catalyst formulation and at least one ethylene interpolymer is produced with a heterogeneous catalyst formulation.
