A composition comprising the following components: A) a first ethylene/alpha-olefin interpolymer with a melt index I2A; B) a second ethylene/alpha-olefin interpolymer with a melt index I2B; and wherein the difference in melt index (I2): (I2A−I2B)≥400, and wherein I2B≤100 g/10 min; C) a filler, and wherein the filler is present in an amount ≥50 wt %, based on the weight of the composition; D) a tackifier; and wherein the melt viscosity, at 165 C, of the composition, excluding the filler (component C), is ≤30,000 cP.
A composition comprising the following components:
The composition of any one of the previous claims, wherein the first ethylene/alpha-olefin interpolymer has a melt index I2A≥400, and a density ≤0.895 g/cc.
The composition of any one of the previous claims, wherein the density ratio of component A to component B is from 0.80 to 1.20.
The composition of any one of the previous claims, wherein the ratio of the melt index (I2) component A to melt index (I2) of component B is from 10 to 50.
The composition of any one of the previous claims, wherein the melt viscosity, at 165° C., of the composition, excluding the filler (component C), is from 5,000 cP to 30,000 cP.
The composition of any one of the previous claims, wherein weight ratio of “sum of components A and B” to “component D” is from 1.0 to 2.0.
The composition of any one of the previous claims, wherein weight ratio of “sum of components A and B” to “component C” is from 0.10 to 0.50.
The composition of any one of the previous claims, wherein the composition comprises component E, and the weight ratio of “sum of components A and B” to “component E” is from 3.0 to 5.5.
The composition of any one of the previous claims, wherein amount of the “sum of components A and B” is from 5.0 to 10 wt %, based on the weight of the composition.
The composition of any one of the previous claims, wherein the first ethylene/alpha-olefin interpolymer is an ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer, and the second ethylene/alpha-olefin interpolymer is an ethylene/alpha-olefin copolymer.
An article comprising at least one component formed from the composition of any one of the previous claims.
