The effect of branch distribution on morphology, chain dynamics and rheological behavior of metallocene and Ziegler -Natta linear low density polyethylenes

The effects of the branching distribution in ethylene-α-olefin copolymers (LLDPEs) on morphology and molecular mobility in the solid state, and rheological properties in the melt and during crystallization were studied. Two types of ethylene-α-olefin-copolymers were examined: (I) Ziegler-Natta LLDPE...
