Abstract
Improved resin compositions for use in multiple cavity stretch blow molding processes comprising: (a) a propyleneethylene copolymer resin including from about 5% to about 15% of a second stage polymer characterized by a cycle time of T.sub.1, when used to produce containers in multiple cavity stretch blow molding processes; (b) from about 0.1% to about 1.0% of a nucleating agent prepared by irradiating in air a mixture of a propylene homo or copolymer and about 500 to about 3000 ppm of antioxidant with a sufficient amount of ionizing radiation to cause said nucleating agent to have a xylene insoluble content of at least 30%. The improved resin composition is characterized by a cycle time of T.sub.2 when used to produce containers in multiple cavity stretch blow molding processes such that the ratio of T.sub.2 /T.sub.1 is less than 0.95.
