Zusammenfassung:Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to post-consumer recycled (PCR) resin formulations comprising: PCR resin comprising a blend of polyethylene recovered from post-consumer material, pre-consumer material, or combinations thereof; and virgin polyethylene resin formulation, wherein the virgin polyethylene resin formulation comprises: a density from 0.910 to 0.950 g/cc, an improved comonomer content distribution (iCCD) wt. fraction greater than 30 wt. % at a temperature range of 35 to 90° C., and an iCCD wt. fraction greater than 8 wt. % at a temperature range of 99 to 115° C. The PCR resin formulation comprises an overall density of from 0.910 to 0.930 g/cc; an iCCD second elution peak occurring at a temperature greater than 99° C.; an iCCD wt. fraction greater than 6 wt. % at a temperature range of 99 to 115° C.; and an iCCD wt. fraction greater than 60 wt. % at a temperature range of 35 to 90° C.
