Abstract

The introduction of a new family of substantially linear poly olefin copolymers made using the Insite* technology process and marketed under the Affinity* Polyolefin Plastomer (POP) tradename offers polymers with different structure-fabrication-property relationships compared to conven tional linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) polymers. The objective of this paper is to compare the blown fabrication characteristics of a constrained ge ometry catalyst technology (CGCT) polymer to a conventional LLDPE polymer with the similar melt index and density.
