Zusammenfassung: | PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide new polyethylene materials that provide superior high temperature resistance (e.g., in the range of operating temperatures from about 40°C to about 80°C and test temperatures up to about 110°C), high stress resistance, good tensile and impact performance, and excellent processability without having to be crosslinked, which are suitable for durable applications such as a pipe.SOLUTION: The present invention relates to a polyethylene resin having a multimodal molecular weight distribution. The resin has a density in the range from about 0.925 g/ccm to about 0.950 g/ccm, and a melt index (I) in the range from about 0.05 g/10 min to about 5 g/10 min. It comprises at least one high molecular weight (HMW) ethylene interpolymer and at least one low molecular weight (LMW) ethylene polymer. The present invention also relates to a composition comprising such a resin. |
