Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A composition comprising (A) from 30 wt % to 70 wt % of a propylene component including at least one propylene based polymer having a propylene content of at least 70.0 wt %, based on the total weight of the propylene based polymer, and a melt flow rate from 1.0 g/10 min to 100.0 g/10 min (ASTM D-1238 at 230° C., 2.16 kg); (B) from 1 wt % to 20 wt % of an ethylene component including at least one ethylene based polymer having an ethylene content of at least 85.0 wt %, based on the total weight of the ethylene based polymer, and a melt index from 0.1 g/10 min to 50.0 g/10 min (ASTM D-1238 at 190° C., 2.16 kg); (C) from 1 wt % to 40 wt % of an olefin block copolymer; and at least one of (D) from 1 wt % to 40 wt % of a polyolefin elastomer and (E) from 1 wt % to 30 wt % of a filler.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A composition consisting of: (A) from 30 wt % to 70 wt % of a propylene component including at least one propylene based polymer having a propylene content of at least 70.0 wt %, based on the total weight of the propylene based polymer, and a melt flow rate from 1.0 g/10 min to 100.0 g/10 min (ASTM D-1238 at 230° C., 2.16 kg); (B) from 1 wt % to 20 wt % of an ethylene component including at least one ethylene based polymer having an ethylene content of at least 85.0 wt %, based on the total weight of the ethylene based polymer, a melt index from 0.1 g/10 min to 50.0 g/10 min (ASTM D-1238 at 190° C., 2.16 kg), and a density from 0.935 to 0.970 g/cc; (C) from 1 wt % to 40 wt % of an olefin block copolymer; and at least one of (D) from 1 wt % to 40 wt % of a polyolefin elastomer and (E) from 1 wt % to 30 wt % of a filler. 2. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the filler is talc. 3. The composition as claimed claim 1 , wherein the olefin block copolymer has a density from 0.850 g/cc to 0.890 g/cc (ASTM D792) and a melt index from 0.1 g/10 min to 10.0 g/10 min (ASTM D-1238 at 190° C., 2.16 kg). 4. The composition as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the polyolefin elastomer has a density from 0.850 g/cc g/cc to 0.890 g/cc (ASTM D792) and a melt index from 0.1 g/10 min to 30.0 g/10 min (ASTM D-1238 at 190° C., 2.16 kg). 5. The composition as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a melt flow rate of greater than 7.0 g/10 min at 230° C., 2.16 kg. 6. The composition as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a notched impact of greater than 45.0 kJ/m 2 at −20° C. 7. The composition as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a notched impact of greater than 20.0 kJ/m 2 at −30° C. 8. The composition as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a notched impact of greater than 7.0 kJ/m 2 at −45° C. 9. The composition as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising a flexural modulus of greater than 650 MPa.
