Abstract
The present invention relates to a process for the (co)polymerization of olefins to make polyethylene (co)polymers having sporadic long chain branches in high molecular weight fractions and a high molecular weight tail along with reversed comonomer composition distribution for improving processability, melt strength and optical properties. Such polyethylene (co)polymers have been prepared with a process comprising the reaction of at least the following components: (a) an advanced Ziegler-Natta catalyst precursor comprising titanium; (b) an activator comprising organohalogenous aluminum compounds; (c) ethylene; and (d) one or more alpha-olefins.
