Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to ethylene-1-hexene-1-butene terpolymer and a film including the same. The ethylene-1-hexene-1-butene terpolymer according to the present invention has an optimized range of density and melt index and includes 1-hexene and 1-butene as comonomers, and can provide a polymer showing excellent properties by regulating the content ratio of the comonomers in a certain range. Therefore, the film prepared by using the same can be usefully used because it has excellent stickiness, processibility, and falling dart impact strength which are especially suitable for stretch films.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . An ethylene-1-hexene-1-butene terpolymer, of which CI (Co-monomer Incorporation) Index represented by the following Equation 1 is 0.5 to 5; density is 0.900 to 0.916 g/cm 3 ; melt index (MI) measured according to ASTM D1238 at 190° C. and 2.16 kg load condition is 2.0 to 5.0 g/10 mins; and weight ratio of 1-hexene to 1-butene is 1 to 5: CI   Index = ( SCB   content   at   high   molecular   weight   side - SCB   content   at   low   molecular   weight   side ) ( SCB   content   at   low   molecular   weight   side ) [ Equation   1 ] in Equation 1, the SCB (short chain branch) content (unit: ea/1,000C) means the content of C2-C7 branches per 1000 carbons, and the SCB content at low molecular weight side and the SCB content at high molecular weight side mean the SCB content values at the left boundary (the SCB content at low molecular weight side) and the right boundary (the SCB content at high molecular weight side) of the middle range that occupies 60% of the whole area except the right 20% of the area and the left 20% of the area in the molecular weight distribution graph obtained by plotting log value of molecular weight M of the ethylene-1-hexene-1-butene terpolymer (log M) on x axis against the molecular weight distribution to the log value (dwt/dlog M) on y axis. 2 . The ethylene-1-hexene-1-butene terpolymer according to claim 1 , of which weight average molecular weight is 50,000 to about 150,000 g/mol. 3 . The ethylene-1-hexene-1-butene terpolymer according to claim 1 , of which molecular weight distribution (weight average molecular weight/number average molecular weight) is 1.5 to 5. 4 . The ethylene-1-hexene-1-butene terpolymer according to claim 1 , wherein the content of 1-hexene and 1-butene to the total weight of the ethylene-1-hexene-1-butene terpolymer is 5 to 15 wt %. 5 . The ethylene-1-hexene-1-butene terpolymer according to claim 1 , which is prepared by copolymerizing ethylene, 1-hexene, and 1-butene, in the presence of a supported metallocene catalyst that is composed of the outer layer including the area from each surface to ⅓ position of the particle diameter toward the center and the inner layer including the rest area from ⅓ position of the particle diameter to the center, in the cross-section of the supported catalyst particle, and includes the silica carrier on whose inside and surface the alkylaluminoxane is loaded; and one or more metallocene compounds loaded on the silica carrier, wherein the content ratio (wt %) of Al/Si elements of the inner
