Highly flexible heterophasic copolymers through the novel multicatalysts reactor granule technology

Summary

New heterophasic copolymers with high rubber content have been synthesized by combining heterogeneous Ti-based catalysts with metallocenes. The molecular, morphological and mechanical features of these materials were evaluated: it was pointed out that the new copolymers, having more than 60Wt.% of rubber, perform as reinforced elastomers whereas traditional ones show a more plastomeric behaviour. This suggests that new polyolefin materials can augment rather than compete with the traditional ones.
