- the blends of the FPC and SPC are thermoplastic and do not have the phase separated morphology required for the tensile recovery properties of the blends.
- the blends At alpha-olefin compositions higher than the above higher limits for the SPC, the blends have poor tensile strength and a phase separated morphology with a coarse dispersion. It is believed, while not meant to be limited thereby, the SPC needs to have the optimum amount of polypropylene crystallinity to crystallize with the FPC for the beneficial effects of the present invention.

- the resultant morphology consists of a finer dispersion of the highly crystalline component with the continuous phase of the less crystalline phase. Such a morphology leads to in the elastic recovery properties of the blends.
- the second polymer component may also comprise a copolymer of atactic propylene and isotactic propylene. Such crystallizable homopolymers of propylene have been described by R. Waymouth in U. S. Patent 5,594,080, which is included herein by reference.

- the SPC, and SPC2 if used are copolymers having isotactic propylene sequences. If the FPC is predominately syndiotactic polypropylene, then the SPC, and the SPC2 if used, is a copolymer having syndiotactic sequences.
- SPC and SPC2 have similar, preferably substantially identical, tacticity to the FPC. It is believed that this matching of stereoregularity increases the compatibility of the components results in improved adhesion of the domains of the polymers of different crystallinities in the polymer blend composition. Furthermore, good compatibility is only achieved in a narrow range of copolymer composition for the SPC. Narrow intermolecular and intramolecular compositional distribution in the copolymer is preferred. The aforementioned characteristics of the SPC, and SPC2 if used, are preferably achieved by polymerization with a chiral metallocene catalyst.
- the SPC is made with a polymerization catalyst which forms essentially or substantially isotactic polypropylene when all or substantially all propylene sequences in the FPC are isotactic. Nonetheless, the polymerization catalyst used for the formation of SPC will introduce stereo- and regio- errors in the incorporation of propylene. Stereo errors are those where the propylene inserts in the chain with a tacticity that is not isotactic. A regio error in one where the propylene inserts with the methylene group or the methyldiene group adjacent to a similar group in the propylene inserted immediately prior to it. Such errors are more prevalent after the introduction of an ethylene in the SPC.
- the fraction of propylene in isotactic stereoregular sequences is less than 1 for SPC and decreases with increasing ethylene content of the SPC.
- the introduction of these errors in the introduction of propylene, particularly in the presence of increasing amounts of ethylene are important in the use of these ethylene propylene copolymers as the SPC. Notwithstanding the presence of these errors, the SPC is statistically random in the distribution of ethylene.
- the SPC is made with a polymerization catalyst which forms essentially or substantially isotactic polypropylene, when all or substantially all propylene sequences in the FPC are isotactic.
- the SPC is statistically random in the distribution of the ethylene and propylene residues along the chain. Quantitative sequences may be obtained by consideration of the experimentally determined reactivity ratios of the second polymer component or by 13 C NMR.
- the SPC is made with a single sited metallocene catalyst which allows only a single statistical mode of addition of ethylene and propylene in a well-mixed, continuous monomer feed stirred tank polymerization reactor which allows only a single polymerization environment for all of the polymer chains of the SPC.
- one means for carrying out a process of the present invention for the production of the copolymer second polymer component is as follows: (1) liquid propylene is introduced in a stirred-tank reactor, (2) the catalyst system is introduced via nozzles in either the vapor or liquid phase, (3) feed ethylene gas is introduced either into the vapor phase of the reactor, or sparged into the liquid phase as is well known in the art, (4) the reactor contains a liquid phase composed substantially of propylene, together with dissolved alpha-olefin, preferably ethylene, and a vapor phase containing vapors of all monomers, (5) the reactor temperature and pressure may be controlled via reflux of vaporizing propylene (autorefrigeration), as well as by cooling coils, jackets, etc., (6) the polymerization rate is controlled by the concentration of catalyst, temperature, and (7) the ethylene (or other alpha-olefin) content of the polymer product is determined by the ratio of ethylene to propylene in

- the non- coordinating compatible anion activator is preferably utilized in an amount to provide a molar ratio of biscyclopentadienyl metal compound to non-coordinating anion of 10:1 to 1:1.
- the above polymerization reaction is conducted by reacting such monomers in the presence of such catalyst system at a temperature of from -
- While the process of the present invention includes utilizing a catalyst system in the liquid phase (slurry, solution, suspension or bulk phase or combination thereof), gas phase polymerization can also be utilized.
- the catalyst systems When utilized in a gas phase, slurry phase or suspension phase polymerization, the catalyst systems will preferably be supported catalyst systems. See, for example, U.S. Patent No. 5,057,475 which is incorporated herein by reference for purposes of U.S. practice.
- Such catalyst systems can also include other well-known additives such as, for example, scavengers. See, for example, U.S. Patent No. 5,153,157 which is incorporated herein by reference for purposes of U.S. practices.
- These processes may be employed without limitation of the type of reaction vessels and the mode of conducting the polymerization.
- the liquid phase process comprises the steps of contacting ethylene and propylene with the catalyst system in a suitable polymeriza- tion diluent and reacting the monomers in the presence of the catalyst system for a time and at a temperature sufficient to produce an ethylene-propylene copolymer of the desired molecular weight and composition.
- Process oil can be optimally added to the polymer blend compositions of the present invention.
- the addition of process oil in moderate amounts lowers the viscosity and flexibility of the blend while improving the properties of the blend at temperatures near and below O ⁇ C. It is believed that these benefits arise by the lowering of the Tg of the blend comprising the mixture of the FPC and the SPC. Additional benefits of adding process oil to the blend of the FPC and the SPC include improved processability and a better balance of elastic and tensile strength are anticipated.
- the process oil is typically known as extender oil in the rubber application practice.
- the process oils can consist of (a) hydrocarbons consisting of essentially of carbon and hydrogen with traces of heteroatoms such as oxygen or (b) essentially of carbon, hydrogen and at least one heteroatom such as dioctyl phthalate, ethers and polyethers.
- the process oils have a boiling point to be substantially involatile at 200°C.
- These process oils are commonly available either as neat solids or liquids or as physically absorbed mixtures of these materials on an inert support (e.g. clays, silica) to form a free flowing powder. We believe that all forms of these process oils are equally applicable to the description and the practice of the invention.
- the process oils usually include a mixture of a large number of chemical compounds which may consist of linear, acyclic but branched, cyclic and aromatic carbonaceous structures.
- Another family of process oils are certain low to medium molecular weight (Molecular weight (M n ) ⁇ 10,000) organic esters and alkyl ether esters.
- M n low to medium molecular weight
- Examples of process oils are Sunpar 150 and 220 from The Sun Manufacturing Company of Marcus Hook, PA, USA and Hyprene ® V750 and
- Hyprene V1200 from Ergon, Post Office Box 1639, Jackson, MS 39215-1639, USA. and IRM 903 from Calumet Lubricants Co., 10234 Highway 157, Princeton, LA 71067-9172, USA. It is also anticipated that combinations of process oils each of which is described above may be used in the practice of the invention. It is important that in the selection of the process oil be compatible or miscible with the polymer blend composition of the FPC and the SPC in the melt to form a homogenous one phase blend. It is also preferred if the process oil is substantially miscible in the SPC at room temperature.
- the addition of the process oils to the mixture comprising the FPC and the SPC maybe made by any of the conventional means known to the art. These include the addition of all or part of the process oil prior to recovery of the polymer as well as addition of the process oil, in whole or in part, to the polymer as a part of a compounding for the interblending of the FPC and the SPC.
- the compounding step may be carried out in a batch mixer such as a mill or an internal mixer such as Banbury mixer.
- the compounding operation may also be conducted in a continuous process such as a twin screw extruder.
- the FPC and SPC physical mixture may include process oil in the range of from 1 to 200, preferably in the range of from 2 to 50 parts by weight of process oil per hundred parts of total polymer (FPC plus SPC).
- the blends of FPC and SPC and other components may be prepared by any procedure that guarantees an intimate mixture of the components.
- the components can be combined by melt pressing the components together on a Carver press to a thickness of 0.5 millimeter (20 mils) and a temperature of 180°C, rolling up the resulting slab, folding the ends together, and repeating the pressing, rolling, and folding operation 10 times.
- Internal mixers are particularly useful for solution or melt blending. Blending at a temperature of 180°C to 240°C in a Brabender Plastograph for 1 to 20 minutes has been found satisfactory.
- Still another method that may be used for admixing the components involves blending the polymers in a Banbury internal mixer above the flux temperature of all of the components, e.g.,
- the polymer blend compositions of the present invention may comprise other additives.

- Additives which may be incorporated include, for example, fire retardants, antioxidants, plasticizers, pigments, vulcanizing or curative agents, vulcanizing or curative accelerators, cure retarders, processing aids, flame retardants, tackifying resins, and the like. These compounds may include fillers and/or reinforcing materials.
- additives which may be employed to enhance properties include antiblocking agents, coloring agent.
- Lubricants, mold release agents, nucleating agents, reinforcements, and fillers may also be employed. Nucleating agents and fillers tend to improve rigidity of the article.
- the list described herein is not intended to be inclusive of all types of additives which may be employed with the present invention. Upon reading this disclosure, those of skill in the art will appreciate other additives may be employed to enhance properties of the composition.
- the polymer blend compositions of the present invention may be modified to adjust the characteristics of the blend as desired.
- the morphology of the blend is shown in Transmission Electron Microscopy of the blends.
- samples were exposed to vapors of 1% aqueous RuO 4 for 3 days.
- the RuO penetrates the amorphous zones of the continuous, less crystalline phase of the polymer while the more crystalline domains composed largely of the FPC are essentially unaffected.
- Within the continuous zone the RuO 4 stained the microzones of amorphous polymer while the lamellae of crystalline polymer are visible by contrast.
- the blend was cryomicrotomed at -196°C to thin sections approximately 0.3 to 3 ⁇ m thick. Several sections were analyzed for each sample until a section was found where the crystalline domains was unstained while the continuous phase was stained to distinguish it from the dispersed phase and to observe the microstructure of the lamellae of polymer.
- the blends of the current invention with good elastic recovery from tensile deformation had a microstructure with clearly dispersed microdomains of the crystalline phase. This is shown in Figure 1.
- the composition and elastic recovery properties of the blend is shown as H7 in the Tables below.
- the domains are elongated with approximate dimensions of 0.2 ⁇ m x 1 ⁇ m.
- Figure 2 shows a different blend of the invention, designated as K7 in the Tables below, with the dispersed phase having dimensions of 0.6 ⁇ m x 2.0 ⁇ m.
- the addition of SPC2 to this blend is shown in the micrograph BB7 ( Figure 3) shows the reduction in the size of the dispersed phase to elongated particles having 0.2 ⁇ m for each dimension. SPC2 is therefore believed to act as an agent for reducing the size of the dispersion of the crystalline phases in the dispersed continuous phase. This is the morphological effect of adding SPC2 to the blend of a FPC and SPC.
- the blends of the current invention have tensile elongation in excess of 700%). This elongation is determined for blends at 20in min according to the procedure described in ASTM D790. The data is reported in engineering units with no correction to the stress for the lateral contraction in the specimen due to tensile elongation.
- the stress-strain elongation properties of the insitu and the corresponding physical blends was evaluated using dumbbell shaped sample.
- the samples were compression molded at 180° C to 200° C for 15 minutes at a force of 15 tons into a plaque of dimensions of 6 in x 6 in.
- the cooled plaques were removed and the specimens were removed with a die.
- the stress strain evaluation of the samples was conducted on an Instron 4465 tester, made by Instron Corporation of 100 Royall Street, Canton, MA.
- the digital data was collected in a file collected by the Series IX Material Testing System available from Instron Corporation and analyzed using Excel 5, a spreadsheet program available from Microsoft Corporation of Redmond, WA.
- Figure 4 and Figure 5 show the stress strain elongation data for blends containing one FPC and one SPC or two SPC respectively.
- compositions comprising the FPC and the SPC optionally containing SPC2 and/or amounts of process oil can be made which have excellent elastic recovery from tensile deformation.
- These elastic blends have a morphology of containing a crystalline phase dispersed in the continuous crystallizable phase.
- the dispersed crystalline phase contains the majority of the FPC and some of the SPCs due to thermodynamic mixing while the continuous phase consists of the balance of the polymer blend.
- Elastic recovery from tensile deformation is a tension set from 200%> extension of less than 40%, more preferably less than 25%> and more preferably less than 15%.
- compositions of the invention also have a range of tensile strength from 300psi to 5000psi.
- the composition of the invention has a tension set from
- thermal annealing of the polymer blend is conducted by maintaining the polymer blends or the articles made from a such a blend at temperature between room temperature to a maximum of 160°C or more preferably to a maximum of 130°C for a period between 5 minutes to less than 7 days.
- a typical annealing period is 3 days at 50°C or 5 minutes at 100°C.
- the annealing time and temperature can be adjusted for any particular blend composition comprising a FPC and one or two SPC by experimentation.
- Mechanical orientation can be done by the temporary, forced extension of the polymer blend along one or more axis for a short period of time before it is allowed to relax in the absence of the extensional forces. It is believed that the mechanical orientation of the polymer leads to reorientation of the crystallizable portions of the blend of the first and the second polymer.
- Oriented polymer blends is conducted by maintaining the polymer blends or the articles made from a such a blend at an extension of 10% to 400%) for a period of 0.1 seconds to 24 hours.
- a typical orientation is an extension of 200% for a momentary period at room temperature.
- the elastic recovery of oriented blends of this invention is shown in Figure 7.
- articles can contain the composition of the invention after the composition has been oriented, and wherein the tension set from 200%) extension equal to or less than 0.011M + 3, preferably equal to or less than 0.0057M
- Annealing and orientation of the blend of the FPC and SPC lead to improvement in the tensile recovery properties of the blend. This is shown in the data in Tables below where the tension set recovery values for the blends described in the invention are described for the blends as made, after annealing and after orientation as described in the procedures above. The data show that the elastic recovery properties are enhanced.
- compositions comprising the FPC and the SPC containing optional amounts of process oil can be made which have low flexural modulus.
- These blends have a crystalline phase dispersed in the continuous crystallizable phase.
- the crystalline phase contains the majority of the FPC and some of the SPCs due to thermodynamic mixing while the continuous phase consists of the balance of the polymer blend.
- Low flexural modulus is a 1% secant modulus less than 60 kpsi in/in, more preferably less than 30 kpsi in/in and more preferably less than 15 kpsi in/in
- flexural modulus of the blend is judged on two criteria: (a) extensibility to 500% elongation with a measurable modulus and (b) 1% secant flexural modulus. Comparative blends often cannot be extended to 500%> extension for evaluation of the 500%) modulus and thus cannot be compared to the blends of the current invention.
- the flexible blends of the current invention fulfill both of these conditions. Generally for all blends the flexural modulus deteriorates with increase in the 500% tensile modulus. Thus flexural modulus is judged relative to the tensile modulus of the blend for a 500%) extension.
- the blends of the current invention have a lower flexural modulus, as indicated by low tension set, than blends of the comparative blends at comparable 500%) tensile modulus. These properties are available over a wide range of composition and relative amounts of the FPC and the SPC. In the examples shown below we show examples of numerous blends of composition of the FPC and the SPC which have the above favorable combination of properties. The dependence of the flexural modulus of the blend of this invention as a correlated function of the 500%) tensile modulus is shown Figure 8.
- the composition of the invention has a flexural modulus in kpsi.in/in equal to or less than 0.013M -1.3, preferably equal to or less than 0.0083M-1.6, more preferably equal to or less than 0.0062M -2.5 wherein M is

This is introduced into a thick walled glass bottle closed with screw cap along with 50 mg of Irganoxl076, an antioxidant commercially available from Ciba - Geigy Corporation. Then, 425 ml of hexane (a principal mixture of normal and isomers) is added to the contents of the bottle and the sealed bottle is maintained at about 23°C for 24 hours. At the end of this period, the solution is decanted and the residue is treated with additional hexane for an additional 24 hours.
