Estimating the term…
Catalyst compositions and methods, useful in polymerization processes, utilizing at least two metal compounds are disclosed. At least one of the metal compounds is a Group 15 containing metal compound and the other metal compound is preferably a bulky ligand metallocene-type catalyst. The invention also discloses a new polyolefin, generally polyethylene, particularly a multimodal polymer and more specifically, a bimodal polymer, and its use in various end-use applications such as film, molding and pipe.
A process for polymerizing olefin(s) comprising a catalyst composition having a first catalyst system comprising a Group 15 containing bidentate or tridentate ligated Group 3 to 7 metal compound wherein the Group 3 to 7 metal atom is bound to at least one leaving group and to at least two Group 15 atoms, and wherein at least one of the at least two Group 15 atoms is bound to a Group 15 or 16 atom through a bridging group;
