The present invention relates to a propylene-butene-1 random copolymer which has a butene-1 content of 1-6 mol % and a relative dispersity of butene-1, as determined according to NMR method, of greater than 98.5%. The propylene-butene-1 random copolymer of the present invention has a high relative dispersity of butene-1, as well as better transparency and heat resistance, so that it is more suitable for packaging food that may be edible after heating. Moreover, the copolymer has a lower xylene solubles content at room temperature. In addition, the present invention further relates to a method for preparing the copolymer and to a composition and an article comprising the copolymer.

Propylene random copolymer, method for its preparation, and compositions and articles containing the same

The present invention provides a process for preparing high melt strength propylene polymer by direct polymerization, comprising that a propylene polymer with wide molecular weight distribution and containing 'very high molecular weight fraction' can be prepared by controlling the species and ratios of the external electron donors in the Ziegler-Natta catalyst system at different reaction stages according to the requirement for different molecular weight fractions in the different propylene polymerization stage of the series operation, and said polymer has excellent mechanical properties, especially with very high melt strength. The present invention also provides a propylene homopolymer with high melt strength, comprising the following features: (1) the MFR is 0.2-10 g/10 min at 230&#xb0; C. with a load of 2.16 kg; (2) the molecular weight distribution M/Mis 6-20; (3) the content of the fraction with a molecular weight higher than 5,000,000 is higher than or equal to 0.8 wt %; (4) M/Mis higher than or equal to 70. Said homopolymer can be used in the preparation of foam products, thermoforming products, biaxial stretching films, blown films and blow-molded products.
