Abstract
The present disclosure relates to polypropylene-based and polyethylene-based polyolefin compositions having improved impact properties. In at least one embodiment, a polyolefin composition includes an ethylene polymer, a propylene polymer, a propylene-based elastomer, and an ethylene-based plastomer. Compositions of the present disclosure can have one or more of: a Notched Charpy impact strength at 23° C. of 8 kJ/m2 or greater, a Notched Izod Impact Strength at 23° C. of 6 ft-lb/in. or greater, an Unnotched Izod impact strength at 23° C. of 10 ft-lb/in. or greater, and a portion of the composition having a submicron domain content of 50% or greater per mm2.
Claims35
A polyolefin composition comprising:
- an ethylene polymer;
- a propylene polymer;
- from about 1 wt % to about 7 wt % of a propylene-based elastomer, based on the total weight of the polyolefin composition;
- and
- from about 1 wt % to about 7 wt % of an ethylene-based plastomer, based on the total weight of the polyolefin composition.
