Abstract
Disclosed is a process for producing a propylene polymer composition, which includes (a) polymerizing propylene in the presence of a polymerization catalyst to produce a propylene polymer; (b) recovering the propylene polymer, wherein the recovered propylene polymer has a xylene cold solubles (XCS) fraction in an amount of less than 3.0 wt. % based on the total weight amount of the recovered propylene polymer; (c) extruding the propylene polymer in the presence of a peroxide for introducing long chain branching into the propylene polymer to form a propylene polymer composition; and (d) recovering the propylene polymer composition, wherein the recovered propylene polymer composition of step (d) has a lower melt flow rate MFR(230°° C., 2.16 kg) compared to the recovered propylene polymer of step (b). Also disclosed is an article comprising said propylene polymer composition.
