The present description relates to an olefin block copolymer with excellences in elasticity, heat resistance, and processability. The olefin block copolymer comprises a plurality of blocks or segments, each comprising an ethylene or propylene repeating unit and an &#x3b1;-olefin repeating unit at different mole fractions. The olefin block copolymer comprises polymer chains containing 20 to 100 short-chain branches (SCBs) per 1,000 carbon atoms. A point where a first derivative of the number Y of the SCBs per 1,000 carbon atoms of each polymer chain with respect to the molecular weight X of the polymer chain is 0 exists between the minimum and maximum values of the molecular weight X.

Olefin block copolymer

A polyolefin has 1) a density in the range of 0.93 to 0.97 g/cm, 2) a BOCD (Broad Orthogonal Co-monomer Distribution) index defined by a given equation in the range of 1 to 5, and 3) a molecular weight distribution (weight average molecular weight/number average molecular weight) in the range of 4 to 10. A supported hybrid metallocene catalyst comprises a first metallocene compound represented by a first given formulae, a second metallocene compound represented by one of three given formulae, and a support.
