Mono- and multi-layer films and articles made therefrom

A film comprising a polyethylene composition which comprises the reaction product of ethylene and optionally one or more alpha olefin comonomers in the presence of a catalyst composition comprising a multi-metallic procatalyst via a solution polymerization process in at least one reactor, wherein said polyethylene composition is characterized by one or more of the following properties:

• (a) a melt index, I2, measured according to ASTM D1238 (2.16 kg at 190° C.), from 0.1 to 5 g/10 min;
• (b) density, measured according to ASTM D-792, from 0.910 to 0.925 g/cc;
• (c) melt flow ratio, I10/I2, wherein I10 is measured according to ASTM D1238 (10 kg at 190° C.), from 6 to 7.4;
• and
• (d) molecular weight distribution, (MW/Mn) from 2.5 to 3.5;
• wherein said multi-metallic procatalyst is obtained according to a process comprising (a) reacting a hydrocarbon-soluble organomagnesium compound or complex thereof and an active non-metallic or metallic halide to form a magnesium halide support;
• (b) contacting the magnesium halide support with a conditioning compound containing an element selected from the group consisting of boron, aluminum, gallium, indium and tellurium under conditions sufficient to form a conditioned magnesium halide support;
• (c) contacting the conditioned magnesium halide support and a compound containing, as a first metal, titanium, to form a supported titanium compound;
• and (d) contacting the supported titanium compound and a second metal and a third metal independently selected from the group consisting of zirconium, hafnium, vanadium, niobium, tantalum, chromium, molybdenum, and tungsten, provided that the second metal and the third metal are not the same;
• and further provided that the molar ratio of the magnesium to a combination of the titanium and the second and third metals ranges from 30:1 to 5:1;
• under conditions sufficient to form a multi-metallic procatalyst, and
• wherein the polyethylene composition comprises greater than or equal to 1 parts by combined weight of at least three metal residues remaining from a multi-metallic catalyst formed from the multi-metallic procatalyst per one million parts of polyethylene composition.
