Flow Behavior of Sparsely Branched Metallocene-Catalyzed Polyethylenes

This work is concerned with a better understanding of the influences that sparse long-chain branching has on the rheological and processing behavior of commercial metallocene polyethylene (mPE) resins. In order to clarify these influences, a series of six commercial polyethylenes was investigated. F...
