Abstract
This invention relates to a thermoplastic polyolefin composition with (a) a polypropylene having a melting point of greater than 130° C. and a melt flow rate from 10 to 80 g/10 min; (b) an ethylene-propylene copolymer with 40 wt % to 80 wt % ethylene derived units and a Mooney Viscosity (1+4, 125° C.) of greater than 20 Mooney units, a Mw/Mn of from 1.8 to 4.0, and a weight average molecular weight of 50,000 to 300,000 g/mole; and (c) a propylene-based elastomer having 5 wt % to 25 wt % ethylene derived units and having a melting point of less than 110° C. and a Mw/Mn from 2.0 to 4.0; wherein the room temperature notch impact of the thermoplastic polyolefin composition is at least four times greater than the room temperature notch impact of a composition without the propylene-based elastomer.
