Description

Polyethylene composition for film layer
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a polymer composition, the use of said polymer composition in film applications and a film comprising the polymer composition of the invention.
Background
Unimodal Polyethylene (PE) polymers, such as SSC products, are commonly used in film applications. Unimodal PE polymers have e.g. good optical properties, such as low haze, but for example, melt processing of such polymers is not satisfactory in terms of production and may also lead to quality problems of the final product. Multimodal PE polymers with two or more different polymer components are better processed, but melt homogenization of for example multimodal PE may be problematic, leading to inhomogeneities in the final product, which is indicated by a high gel content of the final product.
EP 1472298A of nordic chemical company (Borealis) discloses a multimodal PE polymer composition with two different comonomers. The multimodal PE polymer is polymerized in the presence of a metallocene catalyst. Examples disclose multimodal PE polymers having two polymer components with, for example, different types of comonomers.
The disclosure does seem to define the melt flow of the final multimodal PE polymerKinetic ratio MFR 21 /MFR 2 (FRR 21/2 ) But the melt flow ratio of the exemplary polymers varies in the range of 38-55. EP 1472298 does not mention any sealing properties of the final multimodal PE polymer.
There is a continuing need to find multimodal PE polymers with different property balances to provide tailored solutions to meet the increasing demands of end-use manufacturers, e.g. to reduce production costs, while maintaining or even improving the properties of the final product. There is also a need for tailored polymer solutions to meet the equipment specifications that continue to evolve in the end-use field.

80.0-99.0 wt%, based on the total weight of the polymer composition, (1) a multimodal polymer of ethylene with at least two different comonomers selected from alpha-olefins having 4 to 10 carbon atoms,

Ethylene Polymer Components (A) and
an ethylene polymer component (B),
whereby the MFR of the ethylene polymer component (A) 2 MFR different from the ethylene polymer component (B) 2 And (b)

And 1.0 to 20.0 weight percent of (2) LDPE based on the total weight of the polymer composition.
The term "multimodal" in the context of the polymer of ethylene (1) refers herein to multimodal with respect to the Melt Flow Rate (MFR) of the ethylene polymer components (a) and (B), i.e. the ethylene polymer components (a) and (B) have different MFR values. The multimodal polymer of ethylene (1) may have other multimodal properties with respect to one or more other properties between the ethylene polymer components (a) and (B), as will be described below.
The polymer composition of the present invention as defined above, below or in the claims is also referred to herein simply as "polymer composition".

Unexpectedly, the polymer compositions of the present invention provide improved sealing properties, such as low Seal Initiation Temperature (SIT) and/or improved optical properties, such as improved haze and/or gloss. Furthermore, (1) the SIT of the multimodal polymer of ethylene can surprisingly be changed/modified preferably without the addition of LDPE (2).

Further specific multimodal, i.e. the difference between the comonomer type and comonomer content between the ethylene polymer component (a) and the ethylene polymer component (B), further contributes to very advantageous sealing properties, e.g. an excellent seal initiation temperature can be achieved even at low temperatures.

In addition, the melt flow rate MFR of LDPE is preferred 2 (190 ℃ C., 2.16 kg) in the range of 0.05 to 2.0g/10min, more preferably in the range of 0.10 to 1.8g/10min, still more preferably in the range of 0.10 to 1.8g/10min is in the range of 0.15 to 1.5g/10min, even more preferably.
Thus, an example of such a Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) is the commercial product FT5230 (MFR) from Nordic chemical Co., ltd (Borealis AG) 2 :0.75g/10min; density: 923kg/m 3 )
Preferably, the polymer composition comprises at least 80.0 wt.% of the polymer (1) of ethylene and optionally and preferably additives, based on the total amount of the polymer composition (100 wt.%).
It should be noted here that the polymer of ethylene (1) may optionally comprise a prepolymer component in an amount of up to 20% by weight, which has a well known meaning in the art. In this case, the prepolymer component is calculated in one of the polymer components (A) or (B) of ethylene, preferably in the amount of the ethylene polymer component (A), based on the total amount of the ethylene polymer (1).
Thus, the multimodal polymer of ethylene (1) is preferably prepared using a coordination catalyst. More preferably, the ethylene polymer components (a) and (B) of the polymer of ethylene (1) are preferably produced using single site catalysts, including metallocene catalysts and non-metallocene catalysts, all terms having meanings well known in the art. The term "single site catalyst" refers herein to a catalytically active metallocene compound or complex in combination with a cocatalyst. The metallocene compound or complex is also referred to herein as an organometallic compound (C).
The organometallic compound (C) comprises a transition metal (M) of groups 3 to 10 of the periodic table (IUPAC 2007) or of an actinide or lanthanide.
The term "organometallic compound (C)" according to the invention includes any metallocene or non-metallocene compound of transition metal which carries at least one organic (coordinating) ligand and which exhibits catalytic activity alone or together with a cocatalyst.

Most preferably, the organometallic compound (C) is a metallocene complex comprising a transition metal compound as defined above, which comprises a cyclopentadienyl, indenyl or fluorenyl ligand as substituent "L". In addition, the ligand "L" may have a substituent such as an alkyl group, an aryl group, an aralkyl group, an alkylaryl group, a silyl group, a siloxy group, an alkoxy group, or other hetero atom group, or the like. Suitable metallocene catalysts are known in the art and are disclosed in, inter aliA, WO-A-95/12622, WO-A-96/32423, WO-A-97/28170, WO-A-98/32776, WO-A-99/61489, WO-A-03/010208, WO-A-03/051934, WO-A-03/051514, WO-A-2004/085499, EP-A-1752462 and EP-A-1739103.
The most preferred single site catalysts are metallocene catalysts, which means catalytically active metallocene complexes as defined above in conjunction with a cocatalyst also known as an activator. Suitable activators are metal alkyl compounds, especially aluminum alkyl compounds known in the art. Particularly suitable activators for use with metallocene catalysts are alkylaluminum oxides, such as Methylaluminoxane (MAO), tetraisobutylaluminoxane (TIBAO) or Hexaisobutylaluminoxane (HIBAO).
More preferably, the ethylene polymer components (a) and (B) of the ethylene polymer (1) are produced using the same metallocene catalyst, i.e. in the presence thereof.
Preferably, the Mw/Mn of the polymer (1) of ethylene is between 2.5 and 4.8, preferably between 3.0 and < 4.5, further preferably between 3.5 and 4.2.
The multimodal polymer of ethylene (1) may be produced in any suitable polymerisation process known in the art. The ethylene polymer component (a) is preferably produced in a first polymerization zone and the ethylene polymer component (B) is produced in a second polymerization zone. The first polymerization zone and the second polymerization zone may be connected in any order, i.e. the first polymerization zone may precede the second polymerization zone, or the second polymerization zone may precede the first polymerization zone, or the polymerization zones may be connected in parallel. However, it is preferred to operate the polymerization zone in a cascade mode. The polymerization zone may be operated in slurry, solution or gas phase conditions or in a combination thereof. Suitable processes including cascaded slurry and gas phase polymerization stages are disclosed, for example, in WO-A-92/12182 and WO-A-96/18662.
It is generally preferred to remove the reactants of the preceding polymerization stage from the polymer before introducing the polymer into the subsequent polymerization stage. This is preferably done when the polymer is transferred from one polymerization stage to another.
The catalyst may be transferred to the polymerization zone by any means known in the art. For example, the catalyst may be suspended in a diluent and maintained as a homogeneous slurry, the catalyst mixed with a viscous mixture of grease and oil and the resulting slurry fed to the polymerization zone or the catalyst allowed to settle and a portion of the catalyst mud thus obtained introduced into the polymerization zone.
The polymerization in the first polymerization zone, preferably the polymerization of the ethylene polymer component (a), is preferably carried out in a slurry. The polymer particles formed in the polymerization are then suspended in the fluid hydrocarbon along with the catalyst broken up and dispersed in the particles. The slurry is stirred to transfer the reactants from the fluid into the particles.
The polymerization is typically carried out in an inert diluent, typically a hydrocarbon diluent such as methane, ethane, propane, n-butane, isobutane, pentane, hexane, heptane, octane, and the like, or mixtures thereof. Preferably, the diluent is a low boiling hydrocarbon having 1 to 4 carbon atoms or a mixture of such hydrocarbons, the preferred diluent being propane.
The ethylene content in the fluid phase of the slurry may be from 2 to about 50 mole%, preferably from about 2 to about 20 mole%, and especially from about 3 to about 12 mole%.
The temperature in slurry polymerization is generally 50 to 115 ℃, preferably 60 to 110 ℃, especially 70 to 100 ℃. The pressure is from 1 to 150 bar, preferably from 10 to 100 bar.
The slurry polymerization may be carried out in any known reactor for slurry polymerization. Such reactors include continuous stirred tank reactors and loop reactors. The polymerization is particularly preferably carried out in a loop reactor. In such a reactor, the slurry is circulated at a high speed along a closed pipe by using a circulation pump. Loop reactors are generally known in the art and examples are given, for example, in US-se:Sup>A-4582816, US-se:Sup>A-3405109, US-se:Sup>A-3324093, EP-se:Sup>A-479186 and US-se:Sup>A-5391654.
It is sometimes advantageous to carry out the slurry polymerization above the critical temperature and pressure of the fluid mixture. Such an operation is described in US-se:Sup>A-5391654. In such an operation, the temperature is generally from 85 to 110 ℃, preferably from 90 to 105 ℃, and the pressure is from 40 to 150 bar, preferably from 50 to 100 bar.
The slurry may be withdrawn from the reactor continuously or intermittently. The preferred way of intermittent withdrawal is to use settling legs (settling legs) where the slurry is allowed to concentrate before a batch of concentrated slurry is withdrawn from the reactor. The continuous withdrawal is advantageously combined with suitable concentration methods, as disclosed for example in EP-A-1310295 and EP-A-1591460.
Hydrogen may be fed into the reactor to control the molecular weight of the polymer, as is known in the art. In addition, one or more alpha olefin comonomers are added to the reactor, for example to control the density of the polymer product. The actual amounts of such hydrogen and comonomer feeds will depend on the catalyst used and the desired melt index (or molecular weight) and density (or comonomer content) of the resulting polymer.
The polymerization in the second polymerization zone, preferably the polymerization of the ethylene polymer component (B), is preferably carried out in the gas phase, preferably in a fluidized bed reactor, in a fast fluidized bed reactor or in a settled bed reactor or in any combination of these. The polymerization in the second polymerization zone is more preferably carried out in a fluidized bed gas phase reactor, wherein ethylene is polymerized with at least one comonomer in the presence of a polymerization catalyst, and preferably in an upwardly moving gas stream in the presence of the reaction mixture comprising the ethylene polymer component (a) from the first polymerization zone. The reactor typically contains a fluidized bed containing growing polymer particles containing active catalyst located above a fluidization grid.
The polymer bed is fluidized with the aid of a fluidizing gas comprising olefin monomer, final comonomer, final chain growth control agent or chain transfer agent, e.g. hydrogen, and final inert gas. The fluidizing gas is introduced into the inlet chamber at the bottom of the reactor. One or more of the above components may be added continuously to the fluidizing gas to compensate for losses due to, for example, reaction or product removal, etc.
The fluidizing gas passes through the fluidized bed. The superficial velocity of the fluidization gas must be higher than the minimum fluidization velocity of the particles contained in the fluidized bed, otherwise fluidization does not occur. On the other hand, the velocity of the gas should be lower than the initial velocity of the pneumatic transport, otherwise the entire bed will be entrained with the fluidizing gas.
When the fluidizing gas is contacted with a bed containing an active catalyst, the reactive components of the gas, such as the monomer and chain transfer agent, react in the presence of the catalyst to form a polymer product. At the same time, the gas is heated by the heat of reaction.
Unreacted fluidizing gas is withdrawn from the top of the reactor and cooled in a heat exchanger to remove the heat of reaction. The gas is cooled to a temperature below the bed to prevent the bed from heating up due to the reaction. The gas may be cooled to a temperature at which a portion thereof condenses. As the droplets enter the reaction zone they are vaporized. The heat of vaporization then helps to remove the heat of reaction. This type of operation is called condensing mode and its variants are disclosed, for example, in WO-A-2007/025640, US-A-4543399, EP-A-699213 and WO-A-94/25495. Condensing agents may also be added to the recycle gas stream as disclosed in EP-A-696293. The condensing agent is a non-polymerizable component that is at least partially condensed in the cooler, such as n-pentane, isopentane, n-butane, or isobutane.
The gas is then compressed and recycled to the inlet chamber of the reactor. Fresh reactants are introduced into the fluidization gas stream prior to entering the reactor to compensate for losses caused by reaction and product withdrawal. It is generally known to analyze the composition of the fluidizing gas and introduce the gas composition to keep the composition constant. The actual composition depends on the desired product properties and the catalyst used in the polymerization.
The catalyst may be introduced into the reactor in various ways, either continuously or intermittently. When the gas phase reactor is part of a reactor cascade, the catalyst is typically dispersed in the polymer particles from the previous polymerization stage. The polymer particles may be introduced into A gas phase reactor as disclosed in EP-A-1415999 and WO-A-00/26158. In particular, as disclosed in EP-A-887379, EP-A-887380, EP-A-887381 and EP-A-991684, it is advantageous if the preceding reactor is a slurry reactor, to feed the slurry directly into the fluidized bed of the gas phase reactor.
The polymerization product may be withdrawn from the gas phase reactor continuously or intermittently. Combinations of these methods may also be used. Continuous removal is disclosed in WO-A-00/29452 et al. Intermittent removal is disclosed in US-A-4621952, EP-A-188125, EP-A-250169 and EP-A-579426, etc.
Antistatic agents such as water, ketones, aldehydes, alcohols, and the like may also be introduced into the gas phase reactor if desired. The reactor may also include a mechanical agitator to further promote mixing within the fluidized bed.
Typically the fluidised bed polymerisation reactor is operated at a temperature in the range 50 to 100 ℃, preferably 65 to 90 ℃. The pressure is suitably from 10 to 40 bar, preferably from 15 to 30 bar.
The polymerization of at least the ethylene polymer component (a) and the ethylene polymer component (B) in the first and second polymerization zones may be carried out prior to the prepolymerization step. The purpose of the prepolymerization is to polymerize small amounts of polymer onto the catalyst at low temperatures and/or low monomer concentrations. By pre-polymerization, the performance of the catalyst in the slurry can be improved and/or the final polymer properties can be altered. The prepolymerization step can be carried out in slurry or gas phase. Preferably, the prepolymerization is carried out in a slurry, preferably in a loop reactor. The prepolymerization is then preferably carried out in an inert diluent, preferably a low boiling hydrocarbon having 1 to 4 carbon atoms or a mixture of these hydrocarbons.
The temperature in the prepolymerization step is usually 0 to 90 ℃, preferably 20 to 80 ℃, more preferably 40 to 70 ℃.
The pressure is not critical and is generally from 1 to 150 bar, preferably from 10 to 100 bar.
The catalyst components are preferably all introduced into the prepolymerization step. Preferably, the reaction product of the prepolymerization step is then introduced into the first polymerization zone. Also preferably, as described above, the prepolymer component is calculated as the amount of the ethylene polymer component (a).
The polymerization conditions as well as the feed stream and residence time are adjusted in each step to obtain the multimodal polymer of ethylene (1) as claimed, which is within the knowledge of the skilled person.
Multimodal polymer (1) comprising at least ethylene, preferably comprising only ethylene polymer components (a) and (B) obtained from a second polymerization zone, preferably a gas phase reactor as described above, is subjected to conventional post reactor treatment to remove e.g. unreacted components.
Thereafter, the polymer obtained is generally extruded and pelletized. Extrusion may be carried out in a manner generally known in the art, preferably in a twin screw extruder. One example of a suitable twin screw extruder is a co-rotating twin screw extruder. These are manufactured, for example, by Coperion (Coperion) or Japanese Steel institute (Japan Steel Works). Another example is a counter-rotating twin screw extruder. Such extruders are mainly manufactured by, for example, kobe Steel and Japanese Steel. At least part of the desired additives are preferably mixed with the polymer prior to extrusion, as described above. The extruder typically includes a melting section that melts the polymer and a mixing section that homogenizes the polymer melt. Melting and homogenization is achieved by introducing energy into the polymer. Suitable levels of Specific Energy Input (SEI) are from about 150 to about 450 kWh/ton of polymer, preferably from 175 to 350 kWh/ton.
The film of the invention
The film of the present invention comprises at least one layer comprising said polymer composition.
The film may be a single layer film comprising the polymer composition or a multilayer film wherein at least one layer comprises the polymer composition. The terms "monolayer film" and "multilayer film" have well known meanings in the art.
The layers of the monolayer or multilayer film of the present invention may consist of the polymer composition itself or of a blend of the polymer composition with other polymers. In the case of the blend, any other polymer is different from the polymer (1) of ethylene and is preferably a polyolefin. Some of the above additives, such as processing aids, may optionally be added to the polymer composition during film preparation.
Preferably, at least one layer of the present invention comprises at least 50 wt%, preferably at least 60 wt%, preferably at least 70 wt%, more preferably at least 80 wt% of the polymer composition of the present invention. More preferably, at least one layer of the film of the present invention consists of said polymer composition.
Thus, the films of the present invention may comprise a single layer (i.e., a monolayer) or may be multi-layered. The multilayer film generally and preferably comprises at least 3 layers.
The film is preferably produced by any conventional film extrusion procedure known in the art, including cast film and blown film extrusion. Most preferably, the film is a blown or cast film. For example, blown films are produced by extrusion through an annular die and blown into a tubular film by forming bubbles that collapse between nip rolls after curing. The film may then be slit, cut or converted (e.g., gusseted) as desired. Conventional film production techniques may be used in this regard. If the preferred blown or cast film is a multilayer film, the layers are typically coextruded. The skilled person will know suitable extrusion conditions.
The resulting film may have any thickness conventional in the art. The thickness of the film is not critical and depends on the end use. Thus, the film may have a thickness of, for example, 300 μm or less, typically 6 to 200 μm, preferably 10 to 180 μm, for example 20 to 150 μm or 20 to 120 μm. The polymers of the invention can achieve a thickness of less than 100 μm, for example less than 50 μm, if desired. It is also possible to produce films of the invention having a thickness of even less than 20 μm while maintaining good mechanical properties.
Measurement method
Unless otherwise indicated in the description or in the experimental section, the following methods are used for the determination of properties of the polymer composition and/or any sample preparation thereof as specified in the text or experimental section.
Melt flow Rate
Melt Flow Rate (MFR) is determined according to ISO 1133 and is expressed in g/10 min. MFR is an indicator of polymer flowability and thus processability. The higher the melt flow rate, the lower the viscosity of the polymer. For polyethylene, MFR was determined at 190 ℃. The MFR can be determined under different loads, e.g. 2.16kg (MFR 2 )、5kg(MFR 5 ) Or 21.6kg (MFR) 21 )。
Density of
On compression molded test specimens prepared according to EN ISO 1872-2 (month 2 2007), according to ASTM; d792, method B (equilibrium Density at 23 ℃ C.) measuring the Density of the Polymer in kg/m 3
Molecular weight, molecular weight distribution (Mn, mw, MWD) -GPC
PL 220 (Agilent) GPC was used, equipped with Refractive Index (RI), an in-line four-capillary bridge viscometer (PL-BV 400-HT), and a double light scattering detector (PL-LS 15/90 light scattering detector) with angles of 15℃and 90 ℃. Agilent 3x oxides and 1x oxides Guard chromatography columns were used as stationary phases and 1,2, 4-trichlorobenzene (TCB stabilized with 250 mg/L2, 6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol) as mobile phase at 160℃and constant flow rate of 1 mL/min. 200uL of sample solution was injected per analysis . All samples were prepared by dissolving 8.0-12.0mg of polymer in 10mL (160 ℃) of stabilized TCB (same as mobile phase) at 160℃for 2.5 hours (for PP) or 3 hours (for PE) with continuous gentle shaking. Injection concentration of polymer solution at 160 ℃ (c 160℃ ) Determined as follows.
Wherein: w (W) 25 (Polymer weight) and V 25 (volume of TCB at 25 ℃).
The narrow PS standard (mwd=1.01), a molar mass of 132900g/mol and a viscosity of 0.4789dl/g were used to determine the corresponding detector constants and inter-detector delay volumes. The PS standard used in TCB corresponds to a dn/dc of 0.053cm 3 And/g. Calculations were performed using Cirrus Multi-Offline SEC software version 3.2 (Agilent).
The molar mass of each elution slice was calculated by using a 15 ° light scattering angle. Cirrus MultiSEC software version 3.2 was subjected to data collection, data processing and calculation. Molecular weight was calculated using LS 15angle in the "sample calculation options subfield slice MW data from (sample calculation options subfield slice MW data from)" field using the options in Cirrus software. The dn/dc used to determine the molecular weight is calculated from the detector constant of the RI detector, the concentration c of the sample, and the detector response area of the analyzed sample.
This molecular weight for each slice was calculated at low angles as described by c.jackson and h.g. barth (c.jackson and h.g. barth, "Molecular Weight Sensitive Detectors" in the Size Exclusion Chromatography and related technologies handbook, c. -s.wu, 2 nd edition, marcel Dekker, new york, 2004, page 103). For low and high molecular regions where less signal is obtained for the LS detector or RI detector, respectively, a linear fit is used to relate the elution volumes to the corresponding molecular weights. The area of the linear fit was adjusted according to the sample.
Molecular weight averages (Mz, mw, and Mn), molecular Weight Distribution (MWD), and widths thereof (which are described by polydispersity index, pdi=mw/Mn (where Mn is the number average molecular weight, mw is the weight average molecular weight)) are determined by Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) according to ISO 16014-4:2003 and ASTM D6474-99 using the following formulas:
for a constant elution volume interval DeltaV i Wherein A is i And M i Is the chromatographic peak slice area and polyolefin Molecular Weight (MW) determined by GPC-LS.
Comonomer content:
quantification of microstructure by NMR Spectroscopy
Quantitative Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy was used to quantify the comonomer content of the polymer.
For a Bruker Advance III 500NMR spectrometer 1 H and 13 c was run at 500.13 and 125.76MHz respectively, and the quantification was recorded in the molten state 13 C {1H } NMR spectrum. For all pneumatic techniques nitrogen is used, using 13 C optimized 7mm magic angle turning (MAS) probe all spectra were recorded at 150 ℃. Approximately 200mg of material was charged into a zirconia MAS rotor having an outer diameter of 7mm and rotated at a frequency of 4 kHz. This setting is chosen mainly because of the high sensitivity required for fast identification and accurate quantification. Standard single pulse excitation of { klimke06, parkinson07, castignoles 09} was performed using a short loop delay NOE { polard 04, klimke06} and an RS-HEPT decoupling scheme { filep 05, griffin07 }. A total of 1024 (1 k) transients were obtained for each spectrum.
To quantitative determination 13 C{ 1 H } NMR spectra are processed, integrated, and the quantitative nature of the correlation is determined from the integration. All chemical shifts are referenced internally to the bulk methylene signal (δ+) at 30.00 ppm.
The ethylene amount was quantified using the integration of the methylene (δ+) sites at 30.00ppm, accounting for the reported number of sites per monomer:
E=I δ+ /2
correcting the presence of the isolated comonomer units based on the number of isolated comonomer units present:
E total (S) =E+(3*B+2*H)/2
Wherein B and H are defined for their respective comonomers. Correction for continuous and discontinuous comonomer incorporation (if present) is performed in a similar manner.
Observing a characteristic signal corresponding to 1-butene incorporation, the comonomer fraction is calculated as the fraction of 1-butene in the polymer relative to all monomers in the polymer:
fB total (S) =(B Total (S) /(E Total (S) +B Total (S) +H Total (S) )
Use at 38.3ppm * Integration of the B2 site to quantify the amount of isolated 1-butene incorporated in the EEBEEs sequence, indicates the number of reported sites per comonomer:
B=I *B2
the amount of continuously incorporated 1-butene in the EEBBEE sequence was quantified using integration at the ααb2b2 site at 39.4ppm, accounting for the number of reported sites per comonomer:
BB=2*IααB2B2
the amount of discontinuously incorporated 1-butene in the eebee sequence was quantified using integration at the ββb2b2 site at 24.7ppm, accounting for the number of reported sites per comonomer:
BEB=2*IββB2B2
since the isolated (EEBEE) and discontinuously incorporated (EEBEE) 1-butene have respective overlapping B2 and βb2b2 sites, the total amount of isolated 1-butene incorporation is corrected based on the amount of discontinuous 1-butene present:
B=I *B2 -2*I ββB2B2
the total 1-butene content was calculated based on the sum of the isolated, continuous and discontinuously incorporated 1-butenes:
B total (S) =B+BB+BEB
The total mole fraction of 1-butene in the polymer was then calculated as:
fB=(B total (S) /(E Total (S) +B Total (S) +H Total (S) )
Observing the characteristic signal corresponding to 1-hexene incorporation, the comonomer fraction was calculated as the fraction of 1-hexene in the polymer relative to all monomers in the polymer:
fH Total (S) =(H Total (S) /(E Total (S) +B Total (S) +H Total (S) )
Use at 39.9ppm * Integration of the B4 site to quantify the amount of isolated 1-hexene incorporated in the EEHEE sequence, indicates the number of reported sites per comonomer:
H=I *B4
the amount of continuously incorporated 1-hexene in the EEHHEE sequence was quantified using integration at the ααb4b4 site at 40.5ppm, accounting for the reported number of sites per comonomer:
HH=2*IααB4B4
the amount of discontinuously incorporated 1-hexene in the eehehe sequence was quantified using integration at the ββb4b4b4site at 24.7ppm, indicating the number of reported sites per comonomer:
HEH=2*IββB4B4
the total mole fraction of 1-hexene in the polymer was then calculated as:
fH=(H total (S) /(E Total (S) +B Total (S) +H Total (S) )
The mole percent of comonomer incorporation is calculated from the mole fraction:
b [ mol% ] =100×fb
H [ mol% ] = 100 x fh
The weight percent of comonomer incorporation is calculated from the mole fraction:
b [ wt% ] =100 (fB 56.11)/((fB 56.11) + (fH 84.16) + (1- (fb+fh)). 28.05)
H [ wt% ] =100× (fh×84.16)/((fb×56.11) + (fh×84.16) + (1- (fb+fh))× 28.05)

the method determines the sealing temperature range (sealing range) of polypropylene films, in particular blown films or cast films. The sealing temperature range is a temperature range in which the film can be sealed according to the conditions given below.
The lower limit (heat Seal Initiation Temperature (SIT)) is the sealing temperature at which a seal strength of >5N is reached. When the film sticks to the sealing device, the upper limit (seal end temperature (SET)) is reached.
The sealing range was determined by a J & B4000 type universal sealer with a film thickness of 40. Mu.m

sample width: 25.4mm
Sealing pressure: 0.1N/mm 2
Sealing time: 0.1 second
Cooling time: 99 seconds
Peeling speed: 10 mm/sec
Starting temperature: 80 DEG C
End temperature: 150 DEG C
